THE  EUITOK'S  PHEFACE. 


John  Walker,  whose  name  is  familiar  to  every  student 
of  the  orthoepy  of  the  English  language,  published  his 
Ehijming  Dictionary  in  1775,  twenty  years  after  the  pub- 
lication of  Johnson's  Dictionary  of  the  English  Lan- 
guage, and  sixteen  before  the  appearance  of  his  own 
Critical  Pronouncing  Dictionary.  A  second  edition, 
however,  was  not  required  till  1806,  and,  as  Walker  had 
been  an  Actor  before  he  became  a  Teacher  of  Elocution 
in  London,  he  natui-ally  dedicated  his  work  to  David 
Garrick,  to  whose  pronunciation  on  the  stage,  and  fre- 
quent advice  in  the  prosecution  of  his  inquiries,  he 
gratefully  acknowledges  his  obligations  for  no  small 
measure  of  whatever  merit  his  work  might  possess.  We 
have  not  had  an  opportunity  of  ascertaining  the  dates 
of  all  the  subsequent  editions ;  but  we  believe  the  last 
was  printed  in  1851. 

Walker  certainly  had  the  merit  of  first  producing  a 
work  of  this  sort  in  the  English  language  on  such  an 
extensive  scale ;  for  the  work  of  Bysshe  to  which  he 
refers,  and  of  which  the  fourth  edition  was  printed  in 
1710,  extends  to  only  thirty-six  pages,  on  each  of  which 
are  four  columns  of  words  without  accent  or  explana- 
tion, which  amount  to  a  number  between  six  and  seven 
thousand,  whereas  the  present  work  may  claim  the  title 
of  a  sufficient  dictionary  of  the  language. 

A  Tihyming  Dictionary^  properly  so  called,  ought  to 
bring  together  all  those  words  that  have  the  same  ter- 
minal sound,  although  they  may  not  end  in  the  same 
letters ;  but  such  a  collocation  would  have  complicated 
the  difficulty  of  finding  a  particular  word  and  excluded 
some  of  the  other  advantages  which  the  present  arrange- 
ment affords.  Hence  words  that  are  brought  together 
on  account  of  the  similarity  of  their  spelling,  such  as 


Vi  THE  EDITOIJ  S  PKEFACE. 


bremJ  and  leiul,  refuse  to  rhyme  with  one  another ;  Avhilst 

Is  that  are  chisely  connected  both  by  rh3-me  and 

■n,  na  Iamb  and  ilam,  are,  on  account  of  theii*  final 

rs,  put  far  asunder;  but,  to  compensate  this  slight 

inconvenience,  an  Appendix  has  been  constructed,   in 

which  tenninations   similar  in  sound,  althou<>h  not  in 

ortho<;ntphy,    have   been   brought  into    one    view,  and 

namcrous  examples  given  of  the  practice  of  many  of  oui' 

classical  poets. 

In  superintending  the  present  edition  in  its  passage 
through  the  press,  we  have  omitted  the  repetition  of 
those  words  that,  in  our  Author's  day,  were  beginning 
to  drop  the  final  /.-  when  preceded  by  c;  we  have  altered 
the  place  of  the  accent  in  some  words  in  conformity  to 
present  usage,  but  in  others,  concerning  which  there  is 
a  diversity  of  opinion,  we  have  left  the  accent  un- 
touched, as  indicating  Walker's  decision ;  and  m  many 
instances  we  have  improved  the  definitions  of  words  and 
increased  the  number  of  spiouymous  terms,  as  far  as 
the  limits  of  a  line  would  allow.  After  the  lapse  of  so 
many  years,  it  would  readily  occur  to  any  one,  that  not 
a  lew  words  would  require  to  be  added,  in  order  to  keep 
pace  with  the  progress  of  our  language  ;  nearly  eighteen 
hundred  words  have  accordingly  been  incorporated  with 
the  work.  It  is  interesting  to  note  the  progress  of 
scientific  pursuits  in  the  additions  that  have  been  made 
under  the  termination  olor/i/ ;  while  the  foot  that  the 
number  of  words  ending  in  u  has  been  doubled  shews 
the  increase  of  our  commercial  intercourse  with  foreign 
lands.  With  regard  to  the  ingenious  Appendix,  exhi- 
biting Per^ec/,  nearly  perfect,  and  aUoicalle  rhymes,— had 
we  been  producing  a  new  work  instead  of  a  new  edition 
of  a  work  of  the  furmer  century,  all  that  refers  to  alloiv- 
able  rhymes  would  certainly  have  been  cancelled,  as  no 
longer  tolerable  to  a  poetic  ear;  and  it  is  certainly  some- 
what remarkable  that  our  Author  has  taken  no  notice  of 
the  circumstance,  that  these  imperfect  rhymes  generally 
result  from  the  erroneous  pronunciation  which,  in  the 
Introduction  to  his  Critical  Dictionary,  he  had  indicated 
as  pecuhar  to  Ireland,  and  that  most  of  his  examples  of 
these  alUnvalle  rhymes  have  accordingly  been  derived 
from  the  poems  of  Paruell. 


TUE  EDITOR  S  PREFACE.  VU 

In    his    Introduction,    our   Autlior    has   ingeniously 
pointed  out  the  various  uses  to  which  this  Dictionary 
might  be  ap})lied ;  the  information,  as  to  the  structure 
of  our  language,  that  might  be  derived  from  the  juxta- 
position of  words  of  similar  terminations,  and  the  cor- 
rect pronunciation  of  one  word  as  rhyming  with  another ; 
but  singularly  enough  ho  appears  to  have  been  some- 
what ashamed  of  the  use  to  which  the  very  title  of  the 
work  would  naturally  suggest  its  application.     Whether 
the  liliijmiittj  Dictionary  forms  an  indispensable  part  of 
the  apparatus  of  the  writing  desk  of  the  English  poet, 
wo  have  no  means  of  ascertaining ;  but,  if  any  good 
elicct  is    produced    by   the    composition   of   "  nonsense 
verses  "  in  our  Latin  seminaries,  we  are  persuaded  that 
no  small  benefit  would  result  from  the  practice  of  com- 
posing sense  verses  in  our  English  schools  ;  an  ear  for  the 
pleasing  rhythmus  of  the  language  would  be  cultivated,  if 
not  produced;    the  proper  accentuation  ©f  the  words 
would  be  fixed  in  the  memory  ;  the  correct  sound  of  the 
vowels  in  the  rhymes  would  be  learned ;  the  discern- 
ment of  nearly  synonymous  words  would  be  forced  on 
the  attention,  and  the  pupil's  vocabulary-  would  neces- 
sarily be  greatly  increased  from  the  obligation  that  the 
measure  of  the  verse  would  lay  upon  him.  to  try  several 
words  befoi^e  he  could  find  one  that  would  suit  its  place; 
not  to  speak  of  the  due  cultivation  of  the  imagination, 
the  elevation  of  the  mind,   and  the  refinement  of  the 
heart. 

Under  the  impi'ession  that  the  present  work  is  admii'- 
ably  calculated  to  afibrd  assistance  in  promoting  these 
important  ends,  we  shall  oSer  a  few  facts  and  obser- 
vations on  verse,  alliteration,  assonance,  and  rhyme,  pre- 
mising that  the  limits  to  which  we  are  restricted  prevent 
our  doing  justice  to  a  very  interesting  investigation. 

The  subject  to  which  these  remarks  will  be  confined 
does  not  impose  on  us  the  necessity  of  attempting  to 
define  either  genius  or  poetry.  Both  the  Greek  and 
Scottish  designation  of  a  poet  implies  the  belief  that  he 
is  a  creator,  in  contradistinction  to  the  man  of  science, 
who  is  an  investigator,  and  to  the  historian,  who  is  a 
recorder.  Verse  is  the  form  or  habit  in  which  a  poem 
is  geiierally,  although  not  necessarily,  presented  to  the 


\  111  XUE  EDITUK  S  PlftFACE. 


liearcr  or  reader  ;  and  it  is  to  the  peculiavities  and  orna- 
nientfi  of  this  outward  habit  we  would  briefly  invite 
uttontion. 

A  little  consideration  will  lead  to  the  conclusion,  that 
verse,  in  most  languages,  differsfrom  prose  in  the  return 
of  a  certain  number  of  syllables  that  have  a  peculiar 
relation  to  one  another  as  accented  and  unaccented,  or  as 
long  and  short.     It  is  universally  felt  that  a  degree  of 
pleasure  arises  from  this  definite  arrangement,  and  the 
origin  of  that  pleasure  is  to  be  traced  back  to  the  sense 
of  time  with  which  men  are  generally  endowed.     It  is 
this  principle  that  regulates  the  step  of  a  man,  or  the 
stroke  of  an  oar;  and  hence  the  pleasure  we  experience 
in  beholding  the  regular  step  of  a  company  of  soldiers 
in  their  march,  and  the  simultaneous  sweep  of  the  oars 
of  a  well-manned  boat.     The  time  of  music,  apart  from 
tuue,  is  evidently  related  to  the  movement  to  which  we 
have  now  refeiTed,  and  can  accordingly  be  regulated  by 
the  propei-ly  measured,  though  monotonous,  sound  of 
the  drum.     The  tendency  to  beat  time  with  the  "light 
fairta.stic  toe"  in  the  "  g'iddy  dance,"  is  universally  felt, 
and  is  found  to  be  irresistible,  even  in  the  mere  spec- 
tators.    The  next  process  was  to  bring  lajiguage  into 
conformity  with  the  music  thus  produced,  and  the  result 
was   verse — a   measured   or   metrical   line.      As   these 
results,  therefore,   flow  from    innate  principles  of  our 
constitution,  so,  in  looking  as  far  back  along  the  history 
of  man  as  our  materials  enable  us,  we  find  him  accom- 
panied with  music  and  verse  ;  for  the  rude  cadence  of 
his  song  or  the  movement  of  his  dance  is  ever  accom- 
panied by  the  tap  of  the  drum. 

la  the  Bible,  the  most  ancient  of  records,  we  find 
man,  at  a  very  early  period,  forming  both  wind  and 
stringed  instruments,  modulating  his  speech  into  verse, 
and  exhibiting  in  the  very  earliest  instance  on  record 
that  ])cculiar  parallelism  that  characterised  the  Hebrew 
poetry  of  iili  subsequent  ages. 

When  we  look  to  language,  we  shall  find  that  the 
words  suggestive  of  persons,  animals,  things,  and  actions 
uro  the  most  important;  other  words  do  little  more  than 
connect  these  principal  words  or  j^oint  out  their  quali- 
ties and  relations.     These  words,  therefore,  especially  in 


THE  editor's  PiiEFACE.  1a 

public  speaking,  would  either  be  pronounced  with 
greater  foi-ce,  or  lengthened  in  the  pronunciation,  that  the 
meaning  of  the  speaker  might  be  the  more  clearly  appre- 
hended, or  understood  at  a  greater  distance.  This  natu- 
rally suggests  the  words  in  a  sentence  on  which  the 
emphasis  would  be  placed,  and  the  obvious  reason  for 
employing  such  emphasis.  What  was  thus  true  of  a 
sentence  would  in  process  of  time  become  true  of  a  single 
word ;  for  the  noun  would  have  modifying  syllables 
united  to  it,  in  order  to  shew  its  gender,  number,  and 
relation  to  other  words;  and  the  verb  would  have  modi- 
fications made  on  it  to  indicate  the  persons  acting  and 
the  time  of  the  action ;  but  it  would  naturally  occur, 
that  the  primary  word  on  which  these  modifications  had 
been  made,  especially  if  a  monosyllable,  would  be  indi- 
cated by  pronouncing  it  with  greater /orce  or  length  than 
the  modifying  syllables,  and  hence  the  natural  origin  and 
place  of  the  accent  of  a  word.  In  such  a  collocation  of 
words  as  forms  a  sentence,  it  would  rarely  happen  that 
the  emphatical  words  or  accented  syllables  would  unin- 
tentionally succeed  one  another  in  such  a  regular  order 
ds  would  arrest  the  attention,  and  gratify  the  ear  by  the 
perception  of  uniformity  in  their  recurrence.  But,  as 
already  observed,  it  had  been  eai'ly  discovered  that  there 
were  some,  who,  thi'ough  a  peculiarly  keen  perception  of 
such  measured  sentences  and  the  possession  of  a  copious 
vocabulary  from  which  to  draw  their  materials,  could 
produce  those  measured  sentences  more  readily  and 
pleasantly  than  others ;  and  such  persons,  partly  from 
the  pleasure  they  afforded  their  hearers,  and  partly  from 
the  belief  that  they  had  received  this  peculiar  gift  directly 
from  a  Eupernatural  source,  would  be  highly  esteemed 
and  distincjuished  amonsf  their  fellow-men. 

Syllables  thus  resolve  themselves  into  emphatical  or 
strong,  and  unemphatical  or  weak  ;  or  long  and  short, 
as  they  have  otherwise  been  named.  Referring  once 
more  to  marching,  or  beating  time  with  the  foot,  we 
may  suppose  an  important  word  to  be  uttered  at  the 
putting  down  of  each  foot ;  hence  two  accented  or  long 
B^^llables  for  a  measure  ;  or  the  first  syllable  may  be 
strong  and  the  next  weak,  and  so  on  alternately;  or  the 
first  syllable  may  be  weak  and  the  second  strong,  and 


X  THE  EDITOU  S  PKEFACE. 

this  order  may  be  preserved  throughout:  but  other 
inotlilications  may  yet  be  made,  by  pronouncing  two 
feeble  syllables  at  one  step  and  one  emphatical  syllable 
at  the  next  step;  or  we  may  pronounce  an  emphatical 
syllable  at  the  first  step  and  this  may  be  followed  by 
two  fecltle  ones  ;  and  hence  the  pleasure  the  ear  derives 
from  such  a  regularly-returning  combination  of  syllables. 

VERSIFICATION. 

That  a  large  portion  of  the  Holy  Scriptures  is  poetical 
cannot  be  doubted,  althougli  the  principles  of  Hebrew 
versification  have  not  been  fully  ascertained.  Many 
parts  are  expressly  called  songs,  while  the  nature  of  the 
composition  and  the  elevation  of  style  clearly  indicate 
the  poetical  construction  of  others.  Josephus,  who 
ought  to  be  a  competent  judge,  affirms  that  the  "  songs 
of  Moses "  were  in  heroic  verse,  while  the  "psalms 
of  David  exhibited  various  kinds  of  verse,  some  of 
which  were  composed  in  trimeters  and  others  in  penta- 
meters. The  nature  and  genius  of  Hebrew  poetry,  how 
ever,  have  been  warmly  contested,  and  have  been  most 
successfully  illustrated  by  Bishops  Lowth  and  Jebb. 
The  poetry  of  the  Hebrews  originated  in  the  service  of 
religion,  and,  together  with  music,  was  evidently  culti- 
vated by  their  prophets,  and  brought  to  the  greatest 
excellence  in  the  time  of  David,  who  was  himself  not 
only  a  poet,  but  an  inventor  of  musical  instruments. 
Lowth  has  endeavoured  to  prove  that  the  Hebrew 
poetry  exhibits  a  characteristic  dialect ;  that  it  abounds 
in  highly  figurative  and  truly  sublime  expressions  ;  and 
that  it  possesses  a  peculiarity  to  which  he  has  applied  the 
term  pnrallelisvi .  Striking  instances  of  this  peculiarity 
may  be  found  in  any  of  the  psalms  in  which  the  two 
members  of  a  sentence  are  so  adjusted  that  words  answer 
to  words  and  thoughts  to  thoughts.  It  is  this  charac- 
teristic that,  even  in  a  prose  translation,  indicates  the 
])oetic  structure  of  the  originals,  and  fits  these  songs  of 
praise  at  once  for  chanting. 

Thufl,  for  example,  in  the  ninety-fifth  psalm — 

"  In  His  hand  arc  the  dicp  places  of  the  earth, 
T)»o  Htreng^th  of  the  hills  is  Ilis  also. 


THE  EDITOli  S  PREFACE.  XI 

The  sea  is  His,  and  Ho  made  it, 
And  His  hands  formed  the  dry  haul." 

Here  we  cannot  fail  to  see  liow  "  the  depths  of  the  earth" 
are  contrasted  with  "  the  hciglit  of  the  hills  ;"  and  both 
are  represented  as  His  possessions  ;  while  "  the  sea"  is 
contrasted  with  "  the  land,"  and  both  assigned  to  His 
creative  power.  The  following  example  from  the  forty- 
fourth  chapter  of  Isaiah  will  also  forcibly  illustrate  this 
peculiarity  : — 

"  For  I  will  pour  water  upon  him  that  is  thirsty 
KnA.  floods  upon  the  dry  ground  ; 
I  will  pour  my  sjnrit  upon  thy  seed, 
And  my  blessing  upon  thine  offspring.'* 

Here  the  parallelism  between  water  and  floods,  thirsty 
and  dry,  in  the  first  distich,  and  spirit  and  blessimj,  seed 
and  offspring  in  the  second,  is  at  once  apparent ;  and  the 
knowledge  of  this  principle  is  not  without  its  use  in  as- 
certaining the  meaning  of  certain  expi^essions,  as  it  is 
evident  that  the  parallel  words  in  the  above  quotation 
are  also  synonymous,  and  thus,  when  the  Saviour  is  said 
to  have  poured  His  blessing  upon  the  infants  that  were 
bi'ought  to  Him  for  that  purpose,  His  action  was  tant- 
amount to  pouring  His  spirit  upon  their  souls. 

Some  have  endeavoured  to  shew  that  such  metrical 
construction  as  we  find  in  the  poetry  of  the  Greeks  and 
Romans,  may  be  detected  also  in  that  of  the  Hebrews  ; 
but  this  has  been  strenuously  controverted  by  others. 
In  passing,  therefore,  from  the  sacred  to  the  profane,  we 
not  only  enter  a  new  field  of  thought,  but  we  also  per- 
ceive a  new  mode  of  cultivation ;  and  the  Christian, 
whilst  he  has  derived  the  seeds  of  truth  from  the  Jew, 
has  chosen  to  cultivate  them  after  the  manner  of 
the  Gentile.  Hence  the  necessity  of  our  making  a  few 
remarks  on  the  principle  of  the  construction  of  Greek 
and  Latin  verse.  Those  who  have  treated  this  subject 
have  been  led  to  point  out  the  distinction  between  quantity 
and  accent,  affirming  that  the  former  regulated  the  versi- 
fication of  ancient,  and  the  latter  that  of  modem  times. 
"VVe  humbly  conceive  that  quantity  and  accent  are  found 
in  the  compositions  of  both  periods  ;  but  that  the  former 
were  more  distinguished  by  the  quantity  of  syllables,  not 


ill  THE  editor's  preface. 

neglecting  the  accent,  and  that  the  latter  are  more  de- 
pendent on  accent,  not  however,  neglecting  quantity. 
Syllables  among  the  ancients  were  considered  as  either 
hiiij  or  short,  according  to  the  length  of  time  with  which 
they  were  respectively  pronounced  ;  among  the  moderns, 
as  acceuied  or  unaccented,  according  to  the  force  with 
which  they  are  respectively  pronounced.  Two  syllables, 
accordingly,  in  sequence,  may  either  be  both  long  or  both 
short ;  or  the  one  may  be  long  and  the  other  short,  or 
the  one  may  be  short  and  the  other  long  ;  or  to  express 
the  same  ideas  by  signs  ;  two  syllables  may  be  thus  ai*- 

ranged, ,  or  spondee  ;  ^w  ^',  or  dibrach ;  —  ^-^,  or 

trochee  ;  and  -^  — ,  or  iamb  ;  and  all  these  arrangements 
occur  in  English  poetry  ;  but  we  shall  only  repx-esent  the 
two  aiTangements  of  three  syllables  that 'occur  in  our 
verse,  ^-^  '■^  — ,  or  anapest,  and  —  ^—^  ^-',  or  dactyl. 
Each  of  those  arrangements  is  called  a  foot,  metre,  or 
mcamre,  and  the  verse  derives  its  peculiar  name  from 
the  foot  that  most  abounds  in  it.  Among  both  the 
Greeks  and  the  Romans  the  noblest  combination  of  these 
vielres  is  called  the  heroic,  from  its  being  generally  em- 
ployed to  celebrate  the  deeds  of  their  gods  and  heroes, 
as  in  the  celebrated  works  of  Homer  and  Virgil.  We 
shall  briefly  direct  attention  to  this  species  of  verse,  on 
account  of  the  influence  that  it  has  so  long  exerted  on 
the  productions  of  subsequent  bards.  It  consisted  of  six 
of  these  feet,  and  hence  was  called  hexameter.  Gene- 
rally speaking,  the  last  foot  must  be  a  spomlee,  and  the 
preceding  a  dactyl ;  each  of  the  other  four  might  be  in- 
discriminately either  a  dactyl  or  a  spondee.  Hence  the 
number  of  syllables  might  vary  from  thirteen  to  seven- 
teen; but  much  taste  and  ingenuity  might  be  displayed 
in  the  choice  of  the  optional  or  arbitrary  feet  in  order  to 
render  the  "  sound  an  echo  to  the  sense,"  as  the  spondee 
was  suited  to  a  slow  and  solemn  movement,  and  the 
dactyl  to  a  quick  and  lively  one.  In  elegiac  verse,  an 
hexameter  line  alternated  with  a  pentameter,  and  it  is 
f)robably  from  this  that  we  have  derived  an  heroic  verse 
which  i&  pentameter,  and,  as  the  iamb  is  the  prevailing 
loot,  it  is  specifically  termed  iambic.  As  the  verse;  is 
tlicrefijre  jiciitameter  and  iambic,  it  necessarily  consists 
of  ten   syllables.       Like  the  hexameter,  its  last  foot  is 


THE  EDITOR  S  PREFACE.  XUl 

fixed,  and  must  be  a  true  iamb,  but  any  of  the  other 
pUices  may  be  occupied  either  with  a  spondee,  dibrach, 
or  trochee. 

For  heroic,  narrative,  and  didactic  subjects,  this  verse 
has  long  been  employed.  It  is  allowed  to  be  of  native 
origin,  and  Chaucer,  the  father  of  English  poetry,  has 
generally  been  accorded  the  honour  of  its  invention. 
In  its  loftiest  forms,  it  is  written  as  blank  verse,  as  in 
Milton's  Paradise  Lost  and  Regained  and  Young's  Night 
ThougJits ;  or  as  rhyming  couplets,  as  in  the  works  cf 
Chaucer,  Dryden,  Pope,  Campbell,  Crabbe,  Mont- 
gomery, and  many  others.  In  Chaucer,  it  is  compara- 
tively harsh  to  our  ear ;  but  it  acquired  strength  in 
Denham,  sweetness  in  Waller,  a  combination  of  these 
in  Dryden,  and,  perhaps,  perfection  in  Pope. 

Let  us  read  the  following  example  from  the  Canterbury 
Tales  .— 

"  A  good  man  was  thor  of  religioun, 
And  was  a  pore  Persoun  of  a  toun ; 
But  riche  he  was  of  holy  thought  and  work 
He  was  also  a  lerned  man,  a  clerk 
That  Cristes  gospel  gladly  wolde  preche ; 
His  parischens  devoutly  wolde  he  teche.— 
Wyd  was  his  parisch,  and  houses  fer  asondur, 
But  he  ne  lafte  not  for  reyne  ne  tnondur, 
In  siknesse  ne  in  mes'chief  to  visite 
The  ferrest  in  his  parissche,  moche  and  lite, 
Uppon  his  feet,  and  in  his  bond  a  staf . 
This  noble  cnaample  unto  his  schcep  he  gaf, 
But  ferst  he  wroughte,  and  after  that  he  taughte,'"  Ac. 

Here  will  immediately  be  felt,  the  want  of  the  stately 
march  and  harmonious  roll  of  the  heroic  verse  of  the 
present  day.  On  examining  the  passage,  this  will  be 
found  to  arise  from  an  apparent  defect  or  superfluity  of 
syllables  ;  thus  two  syllables  are  apparently  wanting  in 
the  fifth  line,  but  by  making  "Christes"  and  "wolde"  dis- 
syllables, we  shall  find  the  verse  complete  ;  on  the  other 
hand,  the  twelfth  line  seems  to  have  two  superfluous 
syllables  ;  but  by  eliding  the  final  e  of  "  noble"  and  "  en- 
sample,"  or  making  the  termination  of  these  words  glide 
into  the  beginning  of  those  that  follow,  we  shall  get  rid  of 
those  redundant  syllables,  and  I'educe  the  line  to  its 
proper  dimensions.     Let   it  be  remembered,    however. 


XIV  THE  editor's  PREFACE. 

that  Chaucer  was  not  so  fastidious  as  his  successors  be- 
came, and  Drj-den  had  consequently  reason  to  say:  — 
"  It  were  an  easy  matter  to  produce  some  thousands  of 
his  verses,  which  are  himo  for  want  of  half  a  foot,  and 
sometimes  a  whole  one,  and  which  no  pronunciation  can 
make  otherwise.  We  can  only  say  that  he  lived  in  the 
infancy  of  our  poetry,  and  that  nothing  is  brought  to 
perfection  at  first."  It  is  difficult,  from  the  very  abun- 
dance, to  select  a  passage  that  might  prove  the  harmonj/ 
and  strength  of  this  verse  in  modern  times  ;  for  the 
exact  prosody  and  pure  rhymes  of  the  Pleasures  oj 
Mciaory  or  of  Hope,  present  such  examples  on  every 
page.     "We  shall  submit  the  following  : — 

"  Unfading  Hope  !  wli'^n  lifu's  last  embers  burn, 
Then  soul  to  soul,  :inddust  to  dust  return  ! 
Heaven  to  thy  charge  resigns  the  awful  hour ! 
Oil !  then,  thy  kingdom  comes !     Immortal  Power ! 
Wliat  though  each  spark  of  earth-born  rapture  fly 
The  quivering  lip,  pale  cheek,  and  closing  cyo  ! 
Bright  to  the  soul  thy  seraph  hands  convey 
The  morning  dream  of  life's  eternal  day — 
Then,  then,  the  triumph  and  the  trance  begin, 
And  all  the  phoenix  spirit  burns  within." 

The  noble-st  and  most  difficult  species  of  this  ver.se  is 
tliat  which  has  been  called  Uanlc,  on  account  of  its  want- 
ing rhyme.  To  elevate  it,  therefore,  above  prose,  into 
wliich  it  is  apt  to  run  in  unskilful  or  careless  hands, 
great  attention  must  be  given  to  its  rhythm  and  pau.ses, 
apart  from  the  elevation  of  those  sentiments  of  which  it 
may  be  considered  the  appropriate  vehicle.  Marlowe, 
the  greatest  of  Shakspcare's  predecessors,  found  the 
drama  shackled  by  rhyming  couplets.  Some  were  then 
beginning  to  throw  off  this  restraint,  but  the  sense  as 
formerly  still  terminated  with  the  line,  wliich  led  Nash 
to  characterise  it  as  "the  spacious  volubility  of  a  drum- 
ming decasyllabon."  It  was  therefore  reserved  for  the 
genius  of  ^^larlowe  to  break  up  this  monotonous  unifor- 
mity, and  to  introduce  into  his  blank  verse  those  various 
pauses  that  were  afterwards  to  bo  managed  with  such 
consummate  art  in  the  harmonious  and  varied  construc- 
tion (.f  tlie  groat  Epic  of  Milton,  that  will  ever  affi.rd  the 
lirop».r.><cli(ioi  Inr  tlicstudy  ol'tlic  pericctiou  of  the  Kngli.sb 
Ijcroic.  A  critic,  in  condemniug  the  opinion  that  the  pause 


THE  EDITOR'S  PREFACE.  xv 

may  occur  after  any  syllable  in  the  line,  asserts  that  tliis 
is  equivalent  to  saying  that  there  is  no  place  at  all  for  the 
pause.  Now,  had  he  examined  Milton's  lines,  he  would 
have  found  instances  of  the  pause  after  each  syllable  ; 
but  he  would  have  found  that  its  occui*renco  after  the 
first  and  ninth  was  rare,  and  that  its  place  occurred 
more  frequently  and  agreeably  after  the  fourth,  sixtb, 
and  eighth  syllables — the  places  which  the  ear  had  be- 
fore assigned  to  them  in  our  lyric  poems.  When  the 
pause  occurs  after  the  odd  syllables,  which  are  unac- 
cented, the  effect  is  not  unpleasant,  but  the  close  is 
deficient  in  power.  In  such  passages  as  the  following, 
we  mark  in  the  first  line  the  pause  near  the  beginning, 
then  receding  farther  in  the  next,  till  the  full  close  is 
found  at  the  end  of  the  sixth  line. 

"  To  nourish,  |  and  superfluous  moist  consumes ; 
But  I  will  haste,  |  and  from  each  hough  and  hrake, 
Each  plant  and  juciest  gourd,  |  will  pluck  such  choice 
To  entertain  our  angel  guest, |  as  ho 
Beholding  shall  confess,  that  here,  on  Earth, 
God  hath  dispensed  his  bounties  as  in  Heaven." 

Other  examples  could  be  given  in  which  the  pause  is 
near  the  end  of  the  first  line,  more  remote  in  the  next, 
and  so  on  till  it  approaches  the  beginning  and  then  be- 
gins again  to  retire  farther  into  the  Hne  ;  but  our  space 
forbids. 

The  heroic  verse  is  sometimes  formed  into  a  quatrain 
with  alternate  rhymes  ;  which,  from  its  employment, 
has  been  called  the  eleijiac  stanza.  Dryden  considered 
this  the  noblest  species  of  versification  that  our  language 
possesses,  but  few  have  been  of  his  opinion.  It  affords 
greater  vai'iety  than  the  couplet,  and  has  a  more  sonorous 
melody  and  stately  gait.  It  was  in  this  measure  that 
he  wrote  his  Anmis  Mirahilis ;  Shenstone  wrote  many 
elegies  in  it  that  are  scarcely  remembered,  and  Gray 
has  written  one  that  will  never  be  forgotten.  We  give 
the  following  specimen  as  embodying  sentiments  that 
the  Chi'istiau  sadly  misses  in  the  Country  Glmrchjard : — 

"  THE  OHAVE. 

"  One  place  alone  had  ceased  to  hold  its  prey  , 

A  form  had  pressed  it,  and  was  tliorc  no  more , 
The  garineiits  of  the  grave  beside  it  lay, 

Where  once  they  wrapped  Him  on  the  rocky  floor.

'   He  only  with  reluming  foofstcjis  Tjrnko 

The  ttirnal  cahn  wherewith  tlie  tomb  was  bound  ; 
Amoiip  the  sleeping  dead  alono  he  woke, 

And  bless'd  with  outstretch'd  hands  the  host  around. 

"  Well  is  it  that  such  blessing  hovers  here 

To  soothe  each  sad  survivor  of  the  throng, 
Who  haunt  the  portals  of  the  solemn  sphere, 
And  pour  their  woe  the  loaded  air  along. 

**  They  to  the  verge  have  foUow'd  what  the)'  love. 
And  on  the  insuperable  threshold  stand  ; 
With  cherish'd  names  its  speechless  calm  reprove. 
And  stretch  in  the  abyss  their  ungrasped  hand." 

It  has  been  supposed  that  we  are  indebted  for  our  Hue 
of  twelve  syllables,  commonly  called  Alexandrine  verse, 
to  the  French,  as  that  is  the  measure  of  their  heroic 
poetrj^.  After  the  Restoration,  this  verse  was  used  in 
dramatic  compositions,  to  gratify  the  taste  of  the  king, 
whose  ear  had  become  familiarised  to  it  during  his 
sojourn  in  France.  Dryden  also  frequently  concluded 
a  triplet  with  an  Alexandrine  in  his  heroic  verse ;  but 
as  this  suggests  that  the  poet  was  either  unable  to  pack 
the  idea  it  contains  into  the  previous  couplet,  or  was 
unable  to  find  another  idea  to  occupy  another  line,  it 
has  thus,  either  as  an  indication  of  negligence  or  barren- 
ness, been  generally  rejected.  The  most  considerable 
poem  in  English  that  has  been  composed  in  this  measure 
is  Drayton's  Foh/olhlun,  of  which  the  following  lines 
will  afibrd  a  specimen  : — 

"  Then  from  her  burnished  gate  the  goodly  glittering  Flast 
Gilds  every  mountain-top,  wliich  late  tlie  humourous  night 
Bespangled  had  witli  peail,  to  please  the  raorning'i  sight; 
On  which  the  mirthful  quires,  with  their  clear  open  throats, 
Tnto   the  j(jyiul  morn  so  strain  their  warbling  notes, 
'J'hat  tills  and  valleys  riiijr,  and  even  the  echoing  air 
fSeems  all  composed  of  songs  about  them  every  where." 

The  verse  of  fourteen  syllables  has  also  been  emplo3'ed 
in  no  less  considerable  a  work  than  Chapman's  trans- 
lation of  Homer — a  work  into  which  he  has  happily 
transfused  not  a  little  of  the  spirit  of  the  original 
After  a  long  interval,  the  suitableness  of  this  measure  to 
express  heroic  action.s  has  been  justified  by  its  adoption 
by  Lord  ^facaulay,  in  his  Lai/s  of  Ancient  Rome,  al- 
though he  has  occasionally  contracted  or  expanded  the 


I'lIE  EDITOR  S  PKEFACE.  XTi: 

line  by  a  syllable.     We  illustrate  by  a  few  lines  from 
Tvry  :— 

"Kiyht  graciously  he  smiled  on  us,  as  rolled  from  wins;  to  wing, 

Down  all  our  linc^  a  deafening  sliout,  '  God  s  ive  our  lord  the  King,' 

*  And  if  my  standard-bearer  fall,  as  fall  full  well  he  may — 

For  never  saw  I  promise  yet  of  such  a  bloody  fray — 

Press  where  ye  see  my  white  plume  shine,  amidst  the  ranks  of  war, 

And  be  your  orillamme  to-day,  the  helmet  of  Navarre.'  " 

This  is  the  greatest  length  to  which  our  lines  have  been 
cari'ied,  and,  in  this  respect,  they  bear  a  close  resem- 
blance to  the  hexameter  of  the  ancients.  As  the  pause 
is  uniformly  at  the  end  of  the  eighth  syllable,  it  became 
convenient  in  printing  to  break  the  line  into  portions, 
and  this  forms  the  well-known  stanza  of  our  psalms  and 
hymns,  familiarly  known  as  common  vieasure.  After  the 
verse  had  been  thus  divided,  a  farther  improvement  was 
made  upon  it  by  considering  each  portion  as  a  distinct 
lino,  and  then  making  the  four  lines  rhyme  alternately. 
This  foi'iH  may  be  seen  in  the  following  stanza  : — 

"  Hope,  like  the  glimmering  taper's  liylit, 
Adorns  and  cheers  the  way  ; 
And  still,  as  darker  grows  the  night. 
Emits  a  brighter  ray." 

On  this  point,  Montgomery  has  thus  expressed  his 
opinion  : — "  It  is  a  great  temptation  to  the  indolence  of 
hymn-writers,  that  the  quatrain  measures  have  been  so 
often  used  by  Dr.  Watts  without  rh^^me  in  the  first  and 
third  lines.  He  himself  confessed  that  this  was  a  de- 
fect ;  and,  though  some  of  the  most  beautiful  hymns  ai-e 
\\\wa  this  model,  if  the  thing  itself  be  not  a  fault,  it  is 
the  cause  of  half  the  faults  that  may  be  found  in  in- 
ferior compositions, — negligence,  feebleness,  and  pros- 
ing." Notwithstanding  the  justice  of  this  remark,  we 
observe  that  most  of  the  Hymns  in  the  Dean  of  Canter- 
bury's Poetical  Works  are  in  this  faulty  measure,  and, 
still  worse,  some  of  them  exhibit  both  styles  inter- 
mixed. 

Another  form  is  produced  by  bringing  the  two  long 
ami  tli(!  two  short  lines  together;  thus: — 

"  t'ar  o'er  the  glowing  western  main 
llis  wistful  brow  was  upward  rais'd. 
Where  like  an  angel's  train. 
The  burnish'd  water  hi;  z'd." 


b 


xviii  TUE  EDITOn  S  PUEFACli:. 

Another  modificatiou  in  tliis  quatrain  was  formed  by 
making  all  the  verses  octo-syllabic,  which  form  is  known 
:\ii  long  measure ;  thus: — 

"Thy  precious  things  whate'or  they  be, 

That  hnunt  and  vex  thee,  heart,  and  brain, 
Look  to  the  Cross,  and  Ihou  shalt  see 
How  thou  niajbt  turn  them  all  to  gain." 

Another   form  of  this  stanza  makes  the   four  lines 

rhyme  in  couplets  ;  thus  : — 

"  Abide  with  me  from  morn  till  eve, 
For  without  tlieo  1  cannot  live; 
Abide  with  me  when  niglit  is  nigh, 
For  without  Thee  I  dare  not  die." 

Again,  an  alternate  rhyming  quatrain  may  be  con- 
joined to  one  rhyming  in  couplets,  when  a  stanza  of  tho 
following  form  is  produced  : — 

"  Thus  in  the  dew  of  youth  she  ^hono, 

Thus  in  the  morn  of  beauty  fell; 
Ev(!n  while  we  gazed,  tho  form  was  gone, 

The  life  became  inv'sible ; 
The  last  best  birth,  wiih  her  last  breath. 
Came  in  the  dark  disguise  of  death ; 
Grief  fiU'd  her  parent's  homo  of  love, 
But  joy  her  Father's  house  above." 

When  the  first  and  fourth,  and  second  and  third 
rhyme  together,  that  form  of  verse  is  produced  which 
Tennyson  has  rendered  so  familiar  in  his  affecting  In 
Mmnuriam  : — 

"  Sjihore  all  your  lights  around,  above; 

Sleep,  gentle  heavens,  before  the  prow ; 
Sleep,  gentle  winds  as  he  sleeps  now  ; 
My  friend,  the  brother  of  my  love ; 

"  My  Arthur,  whom  I  shall  not  see 
Till  all  my  widowed  race  be  run  ; 
Dear  as  the  mother  to  the  son. 
More  than  my  brothers  are  to  mc." 

There  is  another  form  of  stanza  produced  by  doubling 
Ihc  first  and  third  lines  ;  thus  : — 

"  When  sorrow  all  our  heart  would  ask, 
Wo  need  not  shun  our  daily  task, 

And  hide  ourselves  for  calm  ; 
The  hi-rbs  we  seek  to  heal  our  wuo 
Familiar  l)y  our  pathway  grow, 

Our  common  air  is  ba'm." 


THE  EDITOR  S  PlIEFACE.  xix 

Or  l)v  ti-ebliuij:  them  : — 

"  Well  might  you  guess  what  vision  bright 
Wri3  present  to  his  raptur'd  siglit, 
Even  as  reflected  streams  of  light 
Their  solar  source  betray. 

The  glory  which  our  God  surrounds. 
The  son  of  Blan,  th'  atoning  wounds — 
He  sees  them  all ;  and  earth's  dull  bouads 
Are  melting  fast  away." 

Wlien  the  common  measure  stanza  has  the  first  lino 

di  mini  shed  by  two  syllables,  it  is  then  called  short  mea- 

euro  ;  thus  : — 

"  The  fountain  in  its  source 

No  draught  of  summer  fears ; 
The  fartlier  it  pursues  its  cou-se, 
The  nobler  it  appears." 

Another   form    of  stanza  is   produced   by   adding  a 
rliyuiing  couplet  to  this  (^iiatraiu  ;  thus  : — 

"  Night  is  the  time  to  pray ; 
Our  Saviour  oft  withdrew 
To  desert  mountains  far  away ; 

So  will  his  followers  do, 
Steal  from  the  throng  to  haunts  untioi, 
And  commune  there  alone  with  God." 

Or  thus  : — - 

"  But  like  a  white  swan  down  a  troubled  stream, 
Whose  ruffling  pinion  hath  the  power  to  fling 
Aside  the  turbid  drops  which  darkly  gleam, 

And  mar  the  freshness  of  her  snowy  wing, — 
So  thou,  with  queenly  grace  and  gentle  pride, 
Along  the  world's  dark  waves  in  purity  dost  glide." 

We  find  also,  in  the  search  fw  variety,  that  a  measure 
oljive  syllables  has  not  been  i-ejected  :— 

"  Go  not,  happy  day, 

From  the  shining  fields, 
Go  not,  happy  day. 
Till  the  maiden  yields. 

"  Rosy  is  the  West, 
Rosy  is  tie  South, 
Roses  are  her  checks 
And  a  rose  her  mouth." 

The  descent  from  five  to  four  syllable.':,  or  two  lanibio 
feet,  brings  us  to  the  shortest  measure  in  English  poetry. 


,vx  THE  EDITOR  S  PREFACE. 

One  could  scarcely  believe  that  eo  mtich  could  be  packeil 
into  sncli  narrow  bounds  as  he  will  find  iu  the  following 

linos  : — 

"  But  I'll  come  in 
Before  my  Irss 
Mi^  farthor  tr ss, 
As  sure  to  win 
UndiT  His  cross. 

"  Sin,  Death,  and  Hell, 
His  glorious  name 
Quite  overcame ; 
Yet  I  rebel, 
And  slight  the  same." 

We  seem  to  have  borrowed  the  tercet  or  triplet  fi'om 
the  Italians,  but  iu  a  less  artificial  style,  as  each  tercet 
is  independent  of  the  other  instead  of  having  the  rhymes 
of  the  adjoining  stanzas  interwoven.  Milton  seoras  to 
hnve  imitated  this  measure  iu  his  rendering  of  the  vii. 
Psalm :-  - 

"  Let  th'  enemy  pursue  my  soul, 
And  overtake  it,  let  him  tread 
lily  life  down  to  the  earth,  and  roll 

"  In  the  dust  my  glory  dead, 
In  the  dust  and  there  outspread. 
Lodge  it  with  dishonour  foul." 

James  Montgomery  has  written  an  account  of  a 
Voyage  round  the  world  in  triplets,  which  he  thus  pa- 
trioticall}'  concludes : — 

"  I  have  seen  them  one  by  one, 
Every  shore  beneath  the  sun. 
And  my  voyage  now  is  done, 

"  While  I  bid  them  uU  be  blest, 
Britain  is  my  home,  my  rest ; 
Sline  own  land !  I  love  thee  best." 

But  the  most  considerable  poem  in  this  stanza  is  tho 
remarkable  Tivo  Voices  of  the  Poet  Laureate,  of  which 
the  concluding  stanzas  may  be  given  as  a  specimen  : — 

"  And  forth  into  the  fields  I  wont, 
And  Nature's  living  motion  lent 
The  pulse  of  hope  to  discontent. 

"  I  wondered  at  tho  beauteous  hours, 
Till)  slow  result  of  winter  showers  ; 
You  scarce  could  see  the  grass  for  flowers.

The  Sonnet,  as  its  name  indicates,  is  also  of  Italian 
origin.  It  is  composed  in  ten-syllable  verse,  and  is  con- 
fined to  fourteen  lines.  The  first  eight  lines  have  but 
two  rhymes,  which,  with  the  exception  of  the  first  and 
eighth,  rhyme  in  pairs ;  the  last  six  have  likewise  but 
two  rhymes,  but  they  rhyme  altcrnatel}'.  This  descrip- 
tion will  be  better  understood  by  the  following  example, 
in  which  Milton  has  strictly  adhered  to  the  Italian 
model : — 

''ox    THK    llEMQIOUS    MKMORY    OF   MKS.    CATHKRIXE    THOMSON. 

"  When  faith  and  love,  which  parted  from  thee  never, 
Had  ripen'd  tliy  just  soul  to  dwell  with  God, 
I\reekly  thou  did«t  resign  this  earthly  load 
Of  de  ith,  called  life,  which  us  from  life  doth  sever. 

"  Thy  works  and  alms,  and  all  thy  good  endeavour 
Stay'd  not  behind,  nor  in  the  grave  were  trod  ; 
But  as  faith  pointed  with  her  golden  rod, 
Follow'd  thee  up  to  joy  and  bliss  for  ever. 

"  Love  led  them  on,  and  faith  who  knew  them  best 
Thy  handmaids,  clad  them  o'er  with  purple  bciams 
And  azure  wings,  that  up  they  flew  so  drest , 
"  And  spake  the  tiuth  of  theo  in  glorious  themes 

I5cfore  the  Jud^e,  who  thenceforth  bade  thee  rest 
And  drink  thy  fill  of  pure  immortal  streams."' 

bc-wles  revived  the  sonnet  in  modern  times  ;  Words- 
>v!)rth  still  farther  rendered  it  fanailiai-,  and  no  incon- 
siderable portion  of  the  recently  published  volume  of 
Uean  Alford  consists  of  sonnets.  All  these,  however, 
have  deviated  considerably  from  the  model  we  have  pre- 
sented, in  the  arrangement  of  the  rhymes.  Perhaps 
the  greatest  departure  consists  in  arranging  the  first 
twelve  lines  in  three  independent  stanzas,  in  each  of 
which  the  lines  rhyme  alternately,  and  concluding  the 
whole  by  the  last  two  lines  in  the  form  of  a  rhjming

couplet,  in  which  a  forther  liberfc)^  hiis  been  taken,  but 
rarel}',  in  making  the  last  line  an  Alexandrine,  The  fol- 
lowing example  is  taken  from  the  volume  to  which  we 
have  last  alluded  : — 

"to  wixteu. 
"  Wfleomo,  stern  Winter,  though  thy  Tjrows  are  bour.d 
With  no  fresh  flowers,  and  ditties  none  thou  hast 
But  the  wild  music  of  the  sweejiing  hlast ; 
Welcome  this  chilly  wind,  that  snatches  round 
The  brown  loaves  in  quaint  eddies  ;   we  have  long 
Panted  in  wearying  heat ;   skies  always  bright, 
And  dull  return  of  never-clouded  light, 
Sort  not  with  hearts  that  gather  food  for  song. 
Rather,  dear  "Winter,  I  would  foith  with  thee, 
Watching  thee  disattire  the  earth  ;  and  roam 
On  the  bleak  heaths  that  stretch  about  my  home, 
Till  I'ound  the  flat  horizon  I  can  see 
The  purple  frost-belt ;  then  to  firesida-chair. 
And  sweetest  labour  of  poetic  care." 

The  Ottava  rima,  or,  as  it  is  called,  in  our  prosody,  the 
Spenserean  stanza,  is  also  of  Italian  growth,  only  modi- 
fied by  Spenser's  concluding  it  with  an  Alexandrine 
line,  which  gives  it  a  broader  basis,  or  a  more  majestic 
Bweep.  It  is  in  this  stanza  that  the  bewitching  Faerie 
Queen  is  described ;  Beattie  revived  it  in  his  pensive 
Minstrel;  Thomson  employed  it  in  his  Castle  of  Indol- 
ence; Southey  in  his  Tale  of  Paraguay;  Campbell  in 
his  Gertrude  of  Wyoming ;  Small  in  his  Highlands ;  and 
its  full  powers  were  exhibited  in  the  wanderings  of  the 
sublime  and  bitter  Ghilde  Harold. 

This  stanza  in  its  structure  bears  a  close  resemblance 
to  the  sonnet.  It  consists,  however,  of  only  oiine  lines ; 
the  first  four  rhyme  alternately,  the  fifth  uniformly  takes 
up  the  rhyme  of  the  fourth,  and  the  concluding  line 
rhymes  with  the  preceding.  An  extract  from  the  last 
of  these  works  will  illustrate  the  strucb.ire  of  this  noble 
stanza : — 

"  The  eky  is  chang(;d  ! — and  such  a  change  !     0  night, 
And  f-torm,  and  darkness,  ye  are  wondrous  strong, 
Yet  lovely  in  your  strength,  as  is  the  light 
Of  a  dark  eye  in  woman  !     Far  along, 
From  peak  to  peak,  the  rattling  crags  among 
Leaps  the  live  thunder!     Not  from  one  lone  cloud, 
Hut  every  mount.tin  now  hath  found  a  tongue, 
And  .Jura  answers,  through  licr  misty  sliroiid, 
baek  to  the  joyous  Alps,  who  call  to  her  aloud !  " 


THE  EDITOK  tJ  PREFACE.  iilU 

The  true  Ottava  rima,  however,  as  used  by  Ariosto, 
presents  six  lines  rhyming  alternately,  and  two  of  the 
same  length  rhyming  together  at  the  close. 

The  following  stanza,  from  Rose's  translation,  exhibits 
this  structure  : — 

"  Let  him  inako  haste  his  feet  to  disongaj^e, 

Nor  lime  his  wings  whom  love  hath  made  a  prize. 

For  love,  in  fine,  is  nought  but  frenzied  rage, 
By  universal  suffrage  of  the  wise  : 

And  albeit  some  may  shew  themselves  more  sage 
Than  Roland,  they  but  sin  in  other  guise. 

For  what  proves  folly  more  than  on  this  shelf. 

Thus  for  another  to  destroy  one's  self  i" " 

Octosyllabic  verse,  in  which  the  lines  rhyme  in  coup- 
lets, has  been  mucb  used  in  narrative  poetry  from  the 
time  of  Chaucer,  who  composed  in  it  his  House  of  Fame, 
whicli  Pope,  in  heroic  verse,  has  rendered  so  famous  as 
the  Temple  of  Fame.  It  requires  great  attention  to 
counteract  its  "  fatal  facility  "  of  leading  to  diffusion  and 
weakness.  Much  of  the  narrative  portions  of  Sir  Walter 
Scott's  poetical  romances  is  written  in  this  style  : — 

"  At  length  the  freshening  western  blast 
Aside  the  shroud  of  battle  cast ; 
And,  first,  the  ridge  of  mingled  spears 
Above  the  brightening  cloud  appears ; 
And  in  the  smoke  the  pennons  ilew, 
As  in  the  storm  the  white  sea-mew. 
Then  marked  they,  dashing  broad  and  far, 
The  broken  billows  of  the  war, 
And  plumed  crests  of  chieftains  brave 
Floating  like  foam  upon  the  wave." 

These  may  be  considered  the  principal,  they  are  by  no 
means  all  the  forms,  in  which  the  ingenuity  of  our  poets 
has  presented  what  may  be  considered  our  lyric 
Iambic  quatrain. 

We  shall  now  briefly  illustrate  our  other  kinds  of  ver- 
sification. As  the  Iamb  consists  of  a  short  and  a  long 
syllable,  so  the  Trochee  consists  of  a  long  and  a  short. 
Verses  characterised  by  this  foot  are  commonly  of  the 
lyric  kind,  and  the  accent  on  the  first  syllable  gives  the 
verse  an  abrupt  and  rapid  manner. 

Locksley  Hall  is  a  poem  of  considerable  length  in  the 
trochaic  measure :— 


iXlV  THE  £L>liCR  S  TRCFACE. 

•*  Not  in  vain  the  distance  beacon*     Forward,   forward,    let  us 

range. 
Let  the  preut  world  spin  for  ever  down  the  ringing  grooves  of 

chiinge. 
Throunh  the  shadow  of  the  globe  we  sweep  into  the  younger  daj' ; 
Better  fifty  years  in  Europe  than  ii  cycle  in  Calliay." 

Poe's  reniarkal>Ie  poem,  The  Haven,  is  also  composed  in 
tliis  measure,  ami  in  its  structure  sliews  a  wonderful 
command  of  language  regulated  by  a  delicate  sense  of 
hannonv  : — 

'■  Open   here  I  flung  the  shutter,  when,   with  many  a  flirt   and 
flutter. 
In  there  stepped  a  stately  Raven  of  the  saintly  days  of  yore. 
Ni't    the  least   obeisance   made  he;    not  a   minute   stopped   oJ 

stayed  he  ; 
But,  with  mien  of  lord  or  lady,  perched  above  my  chamber  door — 
Perched  upon  a  bust  of  Pallas  just  above  my  chamber  door — 
Perched,  and  sat,  and  nothing  moie." 

Neither  has  it  been  considered  unworthy  of  a.  place 
in  our  hymnology  : — 

"  Pilgrim,  burthen'd  witli  thy  sin, 
Come  tile  w.iy  to  Zioii's  gate. 
Then,  ti  1  nier';y  let  thee,  in, 

Knock  and  weep,  and  w;itch  and  wait 
"  Knock  ! — He  knows  the  sinner's  cry  : 

Weep  ! — He  loveK  the  mourner's  tears  : 
M":ctch  ! — for  saving  grace  ia  nigh  : 
Wait!-  till  heavenly  light  appears." 

^[ontgfunery's  Wanderer  of  Sivitzerland  is  also  com- 
[)osud  in  this  measure  : — 

"  Long  before  thy  sun  descend, 

May  ihy  woes  and  wanderings  cease  ; 
Late  and  lovely  be  thine  end  ; 

lfoj)e  and  triumph,  joy  and  peace! 
"  As  mr  lakes,  at  day's  decline, 

Brif;hten  thro'  the  gathering  gloom, 
May  thy  latest  moments  shine 
'i  hro'  the  nightfall  of  the  tomb." 

Various  combinations  of  this  verse,  with  the  addition 
of  two  or  more  lines  occur;  but  it  is  unnecessary  to 
multiply  examples;  let  the  following  suffice  : — 

"  Onward,  onward  may  wo  press 

Through  the  path  of  duty  ; 
Virtue  is  true  hajijiine.'^.s, 

K.xcellencc,  true  bt'auty. 
.Minds  arc  of  celestial  birth  ; 
Make  we  then  a  heaven  of  eartti,' 


TUa  EDU'Oli's  riJKFACK.  XXV 

This  verse  is  not  unfreqnently  employed  iji  those 
lyric.iil  poems,  called  Anacreontic : — 

"Little  inmate,  full  of  mirth, 
C'liiiping  on  my  kitchen  hcurth, 
\Vhursoe'er  he  thine  abode, 
Alwiiys  harlanger  of  good, 
Pay  mc  for  thy  warm  retreat 
Willi  u  song  more  soft  and  sweet; 
In  retarn  thou  shall  receive 
Such  a  strain  as  I  can  give." 

Let  US  nf.w  close  this  form  of  line  with  a  feminine 
syllal)le,  or  double  ending;  that  is,  let  the  last  word  have 
the  accent  on  the  penult  syllable,  and  we  produce  the 
measure  in  which  Longfellow  composed  Lis  Soug  of 
Ulawallui : — 

*'  She  was  thinl<ing  of  a  hnntor, 
From  another  tribe  and  country, 
V"Uiig  and  tall,  and  very  handsome. 
Who  one  morning,  in  the  Springtime 
Came  to  buy  her  father's  arrows, 
Sat  and  rested  in  the  wigwam, 
I<ingered  long  about  the  door-way, 
Looking  back  as  he  departed." 

This  verse  may  be  compared  to  the  seventh  note  in 
music,  which  has  been  characteristically  called  the  seek- 
ing note,  as  if  the  ear  sought  another  note  on  which  to 
rest,  as  a  more  satisfactory  close.  It  has  accordingly 
been  alternated  with  a  line  ending  in  a  male  syllable, 
and  thus  is  formed  a  quatrain  which  is  frequently  em- 
ployed in  the  minor  poems  of  the  German  poets,  as  in 
Schiller's  Pilgrim,  Longing,  &c.  ;  and  in  which  Longfel- 
low composed  his  sweet,  bat  defective  Psalm  of  Life : — 

"  Lives  of  great  men  nil  remind  us 
\Ve  can  make  our  lives  sublime; 
And,  departing,  I'uve  behind  us 
Footprints  on  the  sands  of  time ; 

Footprints,  that  perhaps  another, 

Sailing  o"er  life's  .solemn  main, 
A  forlorn  and  shipwreck'd  brother, 

Seeing,  shall  take  heart  again." 

Tnere  yet  remains  to  be  considered  our  Anapesiic. 
verse,  in  which  the  characteristic  feet  are  composed  of 
two  short  syllables  and  one  long.  One  of  the  short 
syllabi  erf  piuy  be  awauting,  in  which  case  the  line  beerins

with  an  lamb,  The  lines  are  not  confined  to  a  cevtaiii 
number  of  feet,  but  lines  either  of  three  or  four  feet  are 
the  most  common.  From  its  general  use,  we  might 
infer  that  it  is  best  calculated  for  the  expression  ot  pen- 
sive subjects,  as  in  Shenstone's  Pastoral  Ballad  : — 

"  I  have  fuii'ndl  out  a  gift'|  for  my  fa'ir ; 

1  have  fou'nd  |  where  the  wo'od| -pigeons  breed; 
But  let  me  the  plunder  forbear  ; 
She  will  say  'twas  a  barbarous  deed." 

Or  iu  Beattie's  Hermit: — 

'•  At  the  clo'se]  of  the  da'y,|  when  the  ha'm|let  is  still, 
And  mo'rltals  the  swee'ts|  of  forge't| fulness  pro'vo,| 
Whore  nought  but  the  torrent  is  heard  on  the  hill, 
And  nought  but  the  nightingale's  song  in  the  grove." 

And  yet,  as  if  to  shew  the  versatility  of  our  metrea, 
this  very  verse,  in  couplets,  has  been  employed  by  Gold- 
smith in  his  Retaliation,  by  Anstey  in  his  New  Bath 
Guide,  and  by  numerous  imitators,  in  light  satirical  and 
humorous  compositions: — 

"  If  our  l;i'nd|lovd  suppli'es  |  us  with  be'ef  ]  and  with  fi'sh,  | 
Let  each  guest  bring  himself,  and  he  brings  the  best  dish." 


IMITATION  OF  CLASSICAL  METRES. 

Frequent  attempts  have  been  made  to  introduce 
S'piiie  of  the  classical  metres  into  English  poetry,  but  the 
p(i[)ular  ear  seems  incapable  of  relishing  them.  To 
some  of  these  attempts  we  shall  briefly  advert.  The 
hexameter,  which  has  been  considered  the  noblest  of  the 
Greek  and  Roman  measures,  and  which  has  been  intro- 
duced into  German  versification,  has  been  attempted  by 
Southdy,  Longfellow,  Alford,  &c.  When  this  verse  is 
pui'cly  dactylic,  with  the  necessary  exception  of  the  last 
loot,  it  has  too  much  of  the  cadence  of  a  horse  at  the 
canter,  as  in  the  hackneyed  illustration — 

"  Qaadrupedante  ptttrcm  sonitu  quatit  utigula  campum  ;  " 

Tliis  is  the  measure  in  which  Longfellow  has  com- 
posed, and,  as  some  think,  spoiled  his  tales  of  Evange- 
line and  the  Courtship  of  Miles  Standish;  from  the  latter 
we  give  the  following  illustration: — 


THE  EDITOK  S  PjREI'ACE.  XXVll 


"  Dimly  the  |  shadowy  |  form  of  the  |  May-Flower  |  riding  at  | 

anchor, 
IJockcd  on  the  rising  tide,  and  ready  to  sail  on  the  morrow  ; 
Heard  the  voices  of  men  througli  tlie  mist,  the  rattle  of  cordage 
Thrown  on  the  deck,  the  shouts  of  the  mate,  and  the  sailors'   '  Ay, 

'i>''Sir!' 
Clear  and  distinct,  but  not  loud,  in  the  dripping  air  of  the  twilight. 
Still   for   a   moment  he   stood,  and  listened   and  stai-ed   at  the 
vessel,"  &c. 

When  a  greater  variety  of  feet  is  introduced  and  the 
peculiar  dactylic  cadence  is  lost,  the  verse  seems  so 
closely  to  resemble  English  prose,  that  the  poetical 
rhythm  is  scarcely  perceived,  as  in  the  following 
lines : — 

"  Still,  one  cannot  believe  that,  if  North  and  South  were  to  sever, 
Slavery  could  endure  ten  years  in  its  present  condition." 

Were  these  lines  written  without  break,  one  would 
not  readily  perceive  that  they  were  intended  to  be 
poetical ;  for  they  could  be  easily  matched  by  quotations 
from  the  prose  translation  of  the  psalms  ;  thus  : — 

Why  do  the  heathen  rage  and  the  people  imagine  a  vain  thing  ? 

God  is  gone  up  with  a  shout,  the  Lord  with  the  sound  of  a 
trumpet. 

Several  excellent  specimens  of  hexameters,  with  an 
occasional  slight  alteration,  might  be  found  in  Lord 
Macaulay's  Essay  on  Dryden  : — 

"  Who  in  a  sea  fight 
Thoucht  of  the  price  of  the  china  which  beat  out  the  brains  of  a 
sailor?" 

Dr  Watts  imitated  the  well-known  Sapphic  verse ; 
but,  as  it  nearly  agrees  with  the  rhythm  of  some  of  our 
secular  songs,  this  association  is  certainly  not  calculated 
to  fit  it  for  serious  poetry : — 

"  When  the  |  fierce  north  |  wind  with  his  (  airy  |  forces, 
liears  up  the  Baltic  to  a  foaming  fury  ; 
And  the  red  lightning,  with  a  storm  of  hail  comes 

Rushing  almain  down; 
How  the  poor  sailors  stand  amaz'd  and  tremble, 
While  the  hoarse  thunder,  like  a  bloody  trumpet. 
Hoars  a  loud  onset  to  the  gai)ing  waters, 

Quick  to  devour  them." 


XXviii  THE  EDITOR  S  PREFACE. 

Tlic  rhythm  of  these  verses  will  readily  suggest  to 
the  reader  The  Widow  of  Southey,  and  the  Needy  Knife- 
Grinder  of  Canning. 

Tennyson,  in  his  recent  volume,  has  given  a  few 
specimens  of  "  erjDeriments"  in  other  classical  metres. 
The  first,  called  Boiidicea,  is  in  Trochaic  Tetrameter, 
which  properly  consists  of  eight  trochees,  but  consider- 
able variations  are  admitted,  of  which  our  Laureate  has 
availed  himself,  by  fi-equently  introducing  a  dactyl  in 
the  sixth  foot,  and  occasionally  closing  his  line  with  a 
catalectic  syllable : — 

"  Roar'd  as  |  when  the  |  rolling  |  breakers  |  boom  and  |  blanch  on 

the  I  preci  I  pices, 
YeU'd  as  when  tlie  winds  of  winter  tear  an  oak  on  a  promontory, 
So  the  silent  colony  hearing  her  tumultuous  adversaries." 

The  second  of  his  experiments  is  entitled  Milton,  and 
is  composed  in  Horatian  verse.  Tlie  first  two  lines  are 
greater  Alcaic  ;  the  third  line  is  Archilochian,  and  the 
fourth,  less  Alcaic.  The  nature  of  the  feet  will  be  per- 
ceived by  the  scansion  signs  which  we  have  placed  over 
one  of  the  stanzas  : — 

•'  0  SIip:ht|y  mouth'd  (  in|ventor  of  |  harmonies, 
0  skiJl'd  to  sing  of  Time  or  Eternity, 

God-gift]ed  origan-voice  |  of  Engjlani, 


Milton,  a  ]  name  to  re|sound  for  |  ages." 
The  last  of  these  "experiments"  is  in  PJiahecian,  or 
JieitdecasijUahic  verse,  forming  a  line  of  eleven  syllables, 
disposed  in  the  following  feet,  chiefly  trochaic,  although 
Catullus,  to  whom  the  Laureate  refers,  took  certain 
liberties  with  the  first  and  second  : — 

"  Look,  I  I  como  to  the  |  test,  a  |  tiny  |  poem, 
All  composed  in  a  metre  of  Catullus." 

As  the  anapest  consists  of  two  short  and  one  long 
syllable,  so  the  dactyl  consists  of  one  long  and  two  short. 
Of  hnclijlic  Tetrameter  or  Alcmanian  verse,  the  follow- 
ing specimen  is  from  Southey's  Soldier's  Wife : — 

•*  Wu'ury  wayl-wand'erer,|  lan'guid  and  |  sick'  at  heart. 
Travelling  painfully  over  the  rugged  road, 
Wild-visagcd  Wanderer,  ah,  for  thy  ht.uvy  chance! 


THE   EDITOU'S  PREKAOE.  xxix 

"  Sorely  tliy  little  one  drafts  by  thoo  bare-footed, 
Cold  "is  the  baby  that  hangs  by  thy  bending  back, 
Meagre  and  livid  and  screaming  its  wretchedness." 

These  stanzas,  even  from  the  pen  of  Southcy,  prove 
the  difficulty  of  writing  in  English  dactyls  ;  for  of  these 
six  lines,  only  two  end  with  true  dactyls ;  besides,  as 
Robert  Ilall  said  on  substituting  pierce  hv penetrate,  "  no 
man  who  considered  the  force  of  the  English  language 
would  use  a  word  of  three  syllables"  at  the  close  of  a 
sentence,  "  but  from  absolute  necessity."  This  must 
have  been  felt  by  the  ancients,  who  concluded  the  true 
dact3'lic  tetrameter  with  a  spondee  and  not  a  dactjd,  and 
the  following  may  therefore  be  considered  a  better  illus- 
tration : — 

"  Wha't  though  you  |  tell  me  each  |  ga'y  little  |  rover 
Shrinks  from  the  breath  of  the  first  autumn  day ; 
Surely  'tis  better,  when  summer  is  over, 

To  die  when  all  fair  things  are  fading  away." 

Some  prosodians,  however,  have  considerered  our  ana- 
pestic  verse  as  strictly  a  dactylic  measure ;  but  we  dis- 
sent from  this  decision. 

Upon  the  publication  of  Coleridge's  Chris'abel,  he 
stated  that  it  had  been  constructed  upon  a  new  prin- 
ciple ;  that  the  number  of  syllables  was  not  to  be  re- 
garded, but  those  syllables  on  which  the  emphasis  fell. 
As  these  were  four,  so  the  number  of  syllables  in  a  line 
might  be  but  four ;  but  as  two  or  three  feeble  syllables 
might  be  added  to  each  of  them,  the  number  of  syllables 
might  extend  to  twelve,  and  yet  the  melody  of  the  verse 
be  preserved.  It  was  astonishing  that  Coleridge  should 
have  called  such  a  principle  as  this  new,  seeing  that,  to 
a  considerable  extent,  it  was  the  very  principle  on  which 
the  classical  hexameter  had  been  constructed,  of  which 
he  himself  had  given  a  description  and  illustration,  and 
that  which  is  so  conspicuous  in  our  ancient  ballads. 
This  rhythmical,  as  opposed  to  numerous  verse,  has 
been  extensively  employed  by  many  of  our  poets,  as  im- 
posing upon  them  less  restraint  than  a  luore  correct 
prosody  would  have  required. 

ALLITERATION. 

Next  to   the  harmonious  arrangement  of  syllables  in 


XXX  TUE  EDITOR  S  PREFACE. 

verse,  we  may  consider  alliteration  as  a  species  of  poeti- 
cal ornament.  It  is  produced  by  a  succession  of  words 
beginning  with  the  same  letter.  It  must  have  been  intro- 
duced at  a  very  early  period,  as  we  find  it  characterising 
no  fewer  than  twelve  poems  in  the  Holy  Scriptures.  The 
number  of  the  Hebrew  letters,  which  is  twenty-two,  de- 
termined the  length  of  these  alliterative  poems,  of  which 
each  stanza  begins  with  each  letter  in  its  alphabetical 
order.  It  is  not  necessary  that  we  should  desci'ibe  the 
metrical  structure  of  all  these  poems ;  and,  as  the  alli- 
terative composi'ion  of  the  cxix.  Psalm  must  be  familiar 
to  all,  from  the  names  of  the  letters  being  pi'efixed  to 
each  division  of  eight  verses,  we  shall  advert  to  the 
peculiarities  that  occur  in  the  structure  of  the  third 
chapter  of  the  book  of  Lamentations.  This  poem  con- 
sists of  twenty-two  stanzas ;  each  stanza  contains  three 
lines,  and  the  initial  letter  of  every  stanza  is  also  the 
initial  letter  of  each  line  of  that  stanza.  Any  one  whd 
consults  a  Faragrapli  Bible  will  I'eadily  perceive  not  only 
that  the  lines  resemble  :)ne  another  in  length,  and,  pro- 
bably, if  we  could  read  the  original  aright,  in  the  num- 
ber of  S3'llables ;  but  also  that  each  stanza  exhibits  a 
remarkable  congruity  In  sense  as  well  as  in  structure. 
The  following  stanzas  will  illustrate  all  these  statements, 
with  the  exception  of  the  alliteration  : — 

"  Mine  enemies  chased  mo  sore,  like  a  bird  without  cause. 

They  have  cut  off  my  life  in  the  dungeon,  and  cast  a  stone  upon 

me. 
Waters  flowed  over  my  head  ;  then  I  said,  '  I  am  cut  off! ' 

"  I  called  upon  thy  name,  0  Lord,  out  of  the  low  dungeon. 
Thou  hast  heard  my  voice ;  hide  not  thy  face  at  my  breathing, 

my  cry. 
Tliou  dfewest  near  in  tlio  day  that  I  called  upon  thee;  thou 

saidst,  « Fear  not !'  " 

To  what  extent  this  alliterative  ornament  prevailed  in 
the  poetry  of  the  Greeks  and  Romans,  it  is  not  easy  to 
determine,  as  poems  constructed  by  them  on  such  a 
principle  may  not  have  come  down  to  us ;  or  there  may 
be,  as  was  the  case  for  a  time  in  the  Welsh  poetry,  a 
subtile  alliteration  in  those  that  we  possess,  that  has  not 
yet  been  discovered. 

When,    however,   the    more    [lalpable   alliteration   of 


THE  EDITOR  S  PREFACE.  xxxi 

several  adjaceut  words  occurred,  it  is  evident  that  the 
poet  did  uot  avoid  it,  if  he  did  not  court  such  a  succes- 
sion of  similar  letters.  As  the  Latin  exercised  a  far 
greater  influence  in  modifying  our  language  than  the 
Greek,  we  shall  draw  our  illustrations  only  from  the 
former.  No  sooner  do  we  open  the  works  of  Virgil 
than  we  meet  with  numerous  illustrations  of  the  prin- 
ciple that  regulated  the  construction  of  the  Anglo- 
Saxon  poetry,  in  the  very  first  Eclogue.  We  shall  only 
quote  a  few  of  them  : — 

"  T\(yrQ,  tn  pai'ulffl  rccubans  .'ub  icgmme  fagi 
Silvcs/rem  tenui  Musam  medii^aris  avena. 

"  JFbrtunate  senex,  hie  inter /lumina  nota 
Et/ontes  saeros/rigus  captabis  opacum. 

"  Carmina  nulla  canam  ;  non.  me  pascente,  cap'  llao, 
Florentem  cytisum  et  salices  carpetis  amaras." 

If  we  take  but  a  cursory  look  through  the  Odes  ^i 
Horace,  we  shall  meet  with  abundant  illustrations : — • 

"  Sunt,  quos  curriculo  pulverem  Olympicum 
Cbllegisse  juvat. 

"  Pestomque  a  j!?opulo  etpvincipe  Cajsare  in

"  Pinu3  aut  im7;ulsa  cu7;resaus  Euro, 
Procidit  late  ^josuitque  coUum  in 
Pulvere  Teucro." 

The  following  lines  are  too  remarkable  to  be  omitted, 
and,  although  there  is  no  alliterative  word  in  the  second 
line,  yet  i^oscat  ccurs  in  the  line  immediately  preced- 
ing : — 

"  /'allida  Mors  asquo  pulsat  ^ede  ^au^erum  tabernas 
Rogumquo  turres." 

As  Lucretius  is  at  hand,  we  shall  allow  him  to  fur- 
nish his  quota  of  evidence  on  this  point,  and  so  dismiss 
our  Latin  witnesses  : —

Seeing  that  alliteration  prevailed  so  extensively,  more 
especially  in  the  poetic  compositions  of  the  Celtic  and 
Gothic  dialects,  the  assertion  of  Barry,  in  his  Bcscriptiun 
of  Wales,  in  the  twelfth  century,  will  be  the  more 
readily  received.  Both  the  English  and  Welsh,  accord- 
ing to  him,  were  so  fond  of  this  figure  of  speech,  which 
he°calls  Anyimnination,  that  they  considered  no  composi- 
*non  elegant,  but  rather  rude  and  barbarous,  in  which 
alliteratfon  was  not  plentifully  employed.  Thej  would 
miss  what  they  had  been  accustomed  to  account  a  poeti- 
cal elegance,  and  conclude  that  the  poem  had  been  care- 
lessly composed  or  that  the  poet  had  but  a  paucity  of 

woi'ds. 

A  few  specimens  may  be  extracted  from  one  or  two  of 
our  ancient  poets,  in  order  to  show  to  what  an  extent 
composition  of  this  kind  coald  be  carried. 

The  following  specimen  is  from  the  Prolouge  to  the 
Eighth  Book  of  Douglas's  Virgil,  which  consists  of  four- 
teen similar  stanzas : — 

••  Quliat  wikkituess,  qubat  wauthrylt  now  in  waild  wulkis !

"  'J'he  cusliiit  cniudH,  tlio  corLic  cries, 
The  cuckoo  cucks,  the  pratling  pyva 

To  gcck  her  they  begin  ;

The  crackling  craws,  and  keckling  kajes 

They  deav'd  me  with  their  din  : 
The  painted  pawn  with  Argos  eyes,

And  Echo  answcr'd  all, 

Repeating  with  greeting

Poems  continued  to  be  written  in  English,  the  verse 
of  which  was  merely  alliterative,  down  to  the  commence- 
ment of  the  sixteenth  century,  and  in  Scottish,  to  a  still 
later  period. 

Tn  such  an  extent  had  alliteration  taken  hold  of  the 
popular  ear  that  we  find  it  in  the  jingling  titles  of  books, 
as  Scot  of  Scotstarvit's  Staggering  State  of  Scots  States- 
mev ;  in  many  of  our  proverbs,  as  "  far  fowls  have  fair 
feathers,"  and  even  in  sermons,  especially  in  the  proposi- 
tions that  constituted  the  several  "  heads "  of  dis- 
course. 

It  is  remarkable,  however,  that  the  taste  that  intro- 
duced rhyme  began  to  reject  alliteration ;  for  we  find 
the  critics,  and  even  some  of  the  poets  themselves,  con- 
demning this  principle  that  had  been  so  generally  prac- 
tised and  greatly  admired,  so  early  as  the  time  of 
Chaucer,  who,  although  there  are  many  grucct'ul  in- 
stances scattered  through  his  works,  yet  rejected  it  in 
the  amplitude  which  it  had  acquired,  and  may  be  con- 
sidered as  indirectly  condemning  it  in  the  introduction 
to  the  Parson's  Tale,  who  represents  himself  as  a 
"soutliren  man,"  in  accordance  with  the  prevailing  idea 
that  the  minstrel  or  harper  was  specially  of  the  "  north 
countiie,"  and,  therefore,  acknowledges  his  ignorance  of 
alliteration,  which  had  been  con.sidci'ed  essential  to 
poetry  :  — 

"  I  can  not  geste,  rum,  raf,  ruf,  by  letter 
Ne,  [truly],  ryni  hold  I  but  litel  better. 
An.^,  theretore,  if  you  lust,  1  wol  not  gl  iso,

XXXI V  THE  EFjITOR  S  PREFACE. 

So  intimately,  however,  had  it  been  interwoven  with 
tlie  texture  of  the  poetical  fabric,  that,  in  1575,  when 
Gascoigne  published  his  Notes  concerning  the  making  of 
Verse  or  Rhyme  in  English  he  exhorts  the  student  to 
avoid  it.  Shakspeare,  in  1598,  had  still  occasion  to 
ridicule  the  practice  ;  although  his  ridicule  could  have 
been  pointed  only  at  the  excessive  use  of  this  ornament, 
as  his  own  works  exhibit  many  striking  specimens  of 
alliteration.  The  pedantic  schoolmaster,  Holofernes, 
having  obtained  loermi.ssion  to  read  "an  extemporal 
epitaph  on  the  death  of  the  deer,"  which,  to  humour 
the  ignorant,  he  liad  called  a  pricket,  says,  "  I  will  some- 
thing effect  the  letter  ;  for  it  argues  facility,"  and  then 
read  the  epitaph  beginning — 

"  The  praiseful  princess  pierc'd  and  prick'd 
A  pretty  pleasing  pricket ; 
Some  say  a  sore  ;  but  not  a  sore, 
Till  now  made  sore  by  shooting,"  &c. 

"  We  have,"  in  the  comedy  which  we  have  quoted,  it 
has  been  said,  "  many  of  the  forms  in  which  cleverness 
is  exhibited  as  opposed  to  wisdom,  and  false  refinement 
as  opposed  to  simplicity." 

This  ornament  appearsin  the  most  complicated  form  in 
the  poetical  compositions  of  the  nations  that  inhabited  the 
northern  districts  of  Europe,  and  hence  the  extent  to 
which  we  find  it  prevailing  in  the  poetry  of  the  Anglo- 
Saxons,  and  even  pervading  the  works  of  our  modern 
poets.  Without  describing  and  illustrating  all  the  refine- 
ments in  alliteration  that  the  ingenuity  of  the  bards  of 
many  generations  had  produced,  we  shall  advert  to  that 
only  whichwasmostobvious  andcommon.  This  consisted 
in  making  either  all  the  principal  words  in  a  -verse  of 
some  length  begin  with  the  same  letter;  or,  in  lines  of 
less  extent,  making  at  least  two  of  the  principal  words 
in  one  line  and  one  word  in  the  next  line,  begin  witli 
the  same  letter.  Thus  the  fathers  of  our  literatm-e,  to 
adopt  the  contemptuous  language  of  Milton,  put  the 
iin'dinjr  of  like  sounds  at  the  be^-innings,  instead  of  the 
endings  of  words.  A  more  refined  species  of  allitera- 
tion has  been  pointed  out  in  the  Cymbric  poctrj^,  Avhich 
placed  corresponding  vowel  or  diphthongal  sounds  in 
the  middle   of  the  words  of  the  adjacent  lines,  and  a

similar  aiTanf,aMncnt  may  frequently  be  perceived  in  the 
verses  of  Anacreon.  The  following  specimen  of  the 
celebrated  poem  of  Cacdmon, which  was  composed  before 
680,  the  year  of  his  death,  will  illustrate  these  prin- 
ciples : — 

"  Wera  wuldor  fasier, 
8wa  he  wundra  ge-hwaas, 
ece  dryhtcn, 
oord  onstealde. 
He  aercst  ge-sceop 
ylda  bearnum 
heofon  to  hrofe 
halig  scyppcnd ! 
firum  foldan, 
frea  Alniilitii,' ! " 

This   style  has  been    very    successfully  imitated   by 
Kingsley  in  his  tale  of  Jlereivard,  the  last  of  the  Encjlish. 
As  his  vessel,  the  Otter,  sailed  southwards  from  Kirk- 
wall, he  cheerily  sung  to  his  men : 
"  Lightly  the  long-snabo 

Leaps  after  tempests, 

Gaily  the  sun-gleam 

Glows  after  ram. 

In  lahour  and  daring 

Lies  luck  for  all  mortals, 

Foul  winds  and  foul  witch- wives 

Fray  women  alone." 

As  it  is  not  our  intention  to  give  an  historical  sketch 
of  the  progress  of  the  English  language,  but  only  a  few 
illustrations  of  the  peculiarities  of  its  poetry  ;  so  we  now 
proceed  to  give  a  specimen  of  a  work  of  the  fourteenth 
century,  of  considerable  length  and  no  small  merit, 
which  was  carefully  consti'ucted  on  the  alliterative  prin- 
ciple. We  allude  to  Langland's  Fiers  Ploughman.  The 
following  description  of  the  Pardoner  will  remind  the 
reader  of  Lindsay's  description  of  the  same  character  in 
his  day  : — ■ 

"  There  preached  a  pardoner, 

As  he  a  priest  were  ; 

Brought  forth  a  bull 

With  many  bishops'  seals. 

And  said  that  himself  might

Of  falsehe  le  of  fasting. 

Of  avowes  y-broken.

Levrcd  men  loved  it  well 
And  liked  his  words ; 
Lomeii  up  kneeling 
To  ki^sin  his  bulls  : 
-  He  bouched  them  with  his  brevet, 
And  bleared  hir  even, 
And  r;iu^ht  with  his  ragman 
Kmges  and  brooches." 

There  can  be  little  doubt,  that  the  affectation  displaj^ed 
in  crowding  every  line  with  alliteration,  by  which  inap- 
propriate words  must  often  have  been  employed,  and  the 
sense  not  untrcquently  obscured,  at  last  offended  a  more 
refined  taste  and  led  to  its  disuse.  That  there  is  some- 
thing, however,  in  alliteration  that  is  gratifying  to  the 
reader,  and  ornamental  to  poetic  diction,  is  evident  from 
the  practice  of  poets  down  to  the  present  day.  Upon  a 
careful  inspection  of  their  poems,  however,  it  will  appear 
that  it  is  so  sparingl}"-  and  unobtrusively  introduced, 
that  we  believe  many  readers  of  poetr3-,  while  they  are 
gratified  through  this  graceful  use  of  alliteration,  are  not 
aware  to  what  their  gratification  is  owing,  just  as  when 
one  is  enjoj-ing  "  the  cheering  but  not  inebriating"  cup, 
he  does  not  pause  to  think  of  the  due  proportion  in  which 
the  several  ingredients  have  been  combined.  That  the 
English  language  is  not  essentially  or  extensively  alli- 
terative, may  be  proved  by  the  facts,  that,  when  it  is 
spoken  or  written  naturally  or  unaffectedl}^  the  attention 
of  the  hearer  or  reader  is  not  arrested  by  the  alliterative 
nature  of  the  sentences,  and  that  it  requires,  therefore, 
no  inconsiderable  effort,  or  even  a  gift  that  was  considered 
peculiar  to  the  poet,  in  order  to  render  his  sentences 
both  comparatively  natural  and  alliterative;  and  that, 
when  a  speaker  expresses  himself  happily  even  by  an 
alliterative  antithesis,  the  sentence  not  untrcquently  ex- 
cites such  applause  as  would  be  commanded  by  a  suc- 
cessful witticism.  This  observation  is  farther  confirmed 
by  the  large  amount  of  poetry  that  we  now  possess 
which  is  not  alliterative,  or  in  which  the  alliteration  is 
so  sparingly  and  naturally  introduced  that  it  ma}-  elude 
the  observation  even  of  those  that  are  familiar  with  this 
figure,  and  that  it  requires  a  special  search  to  detect  it 
in  its  lurking  places.  Alliteration,  however,  may  ai-iso 
from  a  principle  involved  in  the  vcr3' constitution  of  oar

language,  and  may  not  be  regarded  as  the  mere  result  of 
a  ready  selection  of  words  from  a  copious  vocabulary,  be- 
cause these  words  must  be  pertinent  to  the  subject; 
unless,  as  Chaucer's  Parson  has  expressed  it,  the  com- 
position is  a  piece  of  mere  rum,  raff,  ruff',  for  the  purpose 
of  amusing  the  ear  with  the  jingle  of  alliteration,  with- 
out regard  to  sense,  and  it  is  probable  that  there  were 
compositions  nearly  approaching  to  this  character,  by 
which  alliteration  was  brought  into  contempt.  When, 
however,  a  subject  is  proposed  for  discussion  or  descrip- 
tion, it  is  surely  somewhat  remarkable,  that  so  many  of 
the  words,  appropriate  to  the  subject,  should  begin  with 
the  same  letter.  It  is  this  consideration  that  probably 
would  lead  down  to  the  roots  of  our  language,  and  might 
discover  the  cause,  why  it  is  so  difficult  altogether  to 
eradicate  alliteration  from  our  speech.  Thus  wei-e  we 
to  take  gold  for  an  illustration,  we  should  find  that, 
under  some  aspects,  it  glows,  and  in  others,  gleams ;  all 
grasp  at  it,  and  many  groan  under  it,  when  they  have 
received  it  in  gowpens  ;  it  gilds  the  saloon,  it  glitters  on 
the  brow  of  beauty,  and  excites  the  gaze  of  the  multi- 
tude ;  it  has  been  used  as  a  gag  to  the  loquacious ;  a 
goad  to  the  indolent,  a  guerdon  to  the  poet,  and,  rarely, 
a  gift  to  the  meritorious.  This  subject,  however,  belongs 
rather  to  the  profound  philologist  than  to  the  mere 
describer  of  the  externals  of  our  English  poetry. 

Those  who  are  familiar  with  the  contempt  in  which 
Milton  held  the  tinklings  of  final  syllables,  or  rhyme, 
will,  perhaps,  be  surprised  to  find,  on  a  close  inspection, 
how  much  he  imitated  the  Anglo-Saxons  in  the  jinglings 
of  initial  consonants,  which,  on  the  same  principle,  may 
be  held,  and  by  some  were  held,  in  equal  contempt. 
The  prevailing  principle  of  the  Saxon  alliteration  was 
that  at  least  tico  important  words — that  is,  generally 
substantives  and  verbs,  to  the  exclusion  of  adverbs  or 
prepositions,  should  begin  with  the  same  letter,  and  one 
such  word  in  the  next  line.  Now,  in  addition  to  many 
pairs  of  alliterative  adjectives  and  nouns  throughout  the 
Paradise  Lost,  such  as  "  dark  destruction,"  "  hazard 
huge,"  "fixed  fate,"  "silent  stream,"  "warring  winds," 
"  vast  vacuit}^"  "  dark  descent,"  "  wearied  wings," 
"  nocturnal    note,"    "  fresh    fountain,"    "  fishy    fume," 


XXXviu  THE  EDlTOli  S  TKEFACE. 

"  cranrerj  cliff,"  &c.  ;  and  many  instances  of  alliterative 
words  not  iii  immediate  coDJuuction,  but  yet  occui-nng 
in  the  same  line,  as  "  to  make  them  mirth  used  all  his 
miprht,"  "  to  taste  that  only  tree,"  "  which  declares  his 
di^rnity — while  they  keep  watch  or  nightly  rounding 
walk,"  "  the  bars  of  hell  an  errand  bad  no  doubt," 
"  there  sitting  where  thou  durst  not  soar,"  "  single 
against  thee  wicked  and  thence  weak,"  "  for  in  his  look 
defiance  lours,"  "  the  fiend  thus  answered,  frowning 
stern,"  "argues  no  leader  but  a  liar  traced,"  "leaning 
half  raised  with  looks  of  cordial  love ;  " — we  find  such 
instances  of  a  still  more  complicated  alliteration  so  fre- 
quently occurring  in  the  course  of  this  greatest  of  epics 
as  to  leave  no  reasonable  doubt  of  the  influence  that  the 
structure  of  the  Anglo-Saxon  poetry  had  exercised  on 
the  mind  of  Milton,  and  that,  however  much  he  may 
have  contemned  the  like  endings  of  rhyme,  he  did  not 
reject  the  frequent  use  of  the  similar  beginnings  of 
alliteration.  Thus  it  will  generally,  we  do  not  say 
universally,  be  found,  that,  when  two  important  words 
occur  in  any  line  of  the  Paradise  Lost,  beginning  with 
the  same  letter,  at  least  one  important  word  or  a  syllable 
in  such  word,  will  be  found  either  in  the  preceding  oi* 
in  the  following  line,  beginning  with  the  same  letter, 
according  to  the  very  practice  of  him  who  first  sung  o\ 
Paradise  Lost,  and  whose  highest  praise  is,  that  the 
reader  of  his  poem  is  reminded  of  his  great  successor. 

This  assertion  is  illustrated  by  the  very  first  two  lines 
of  the  work  : — 

"  Of  Man's/irst  disobidiunce,  and  the^/ruit 
Of  that/orbidden  tree,  &c." 

To  quote  the  many  instances  in  which  this  practice 
occurs  would  be  to  quote  a  large  portion  of  the  poem. 
\Vc  shall,  therefore,  present  only  a  few,  and  leave  the 
reader  to  discover  others,  which  he  will  do  in  the  course 
of  every  score  of  lines,  as  he  peruses  any  portion  of  ilup 
immortal  work  : —

"  Or  in  th(!  emptier  traste,  resembling  air,

"  IJis  iack  was  turn'd,  but  not  his  irightnoss  hid 
Of  beaming  sunny  rays." 

Mark  how  the  tei'iuiuating  words  in  nearly  each  of  the 
following  lines  are  all  alliterative  : — 

.  "  Yet  not  rejoicing  in  his  speed  though  iold 
Far  off  and  fearless,  nor  with  cause  to  ioast, 
TJegins  his  dire  attempt,  which  nigh  the  Airth 
Now  rolling  ioils  in  his  tumultuous  ireast, 
And  like  a  devilish  engine  Jack  recoils." 

But,  obliged  to  omit  passages  equally  pertinent  in 
every  page,  we  shall  quote  almost  the  last  lines,  as  prov- 
ino-  that  this  peculiarity  of  style  which  this  inimitable 
poem  exhibited  at  the  beginning  characterised  it  to  the 
close : — 

"  Waved  over  by  that /laming  brand,  the  gate 
With  dreadful /aces  thronged  and/iery  arms. 

"They  hand  in  hand,  with  wandering  stops  and  slow 
Through  Eden  took  their  solitary  way." 

Our  space  precludes  us  from  giving  specimens  of  alli- 
teration from  other  poets  ;  otherwise  we  should  have 
found  examples  in  every  page  of  Rogers  and  Crabbe. 
We  therefore  omit  all  these,  and  content  ourselves  by 
stating  that   it  was  not  despised  by    Byron,  as  a  few

from  numerous  examples,   taken  from   Childe   Harold, 
will  amply  prove  : — 

'  My  mind  may  lose  its/orcc,  my  blood  its /ire 
And  my/nime  perish  even  in  conquering  pain. 

••  But  here  where  murder  ireath'd  her  Aloody  steam  ; 
And  here  where  buzzing  nations  choked  the  ways.

I  wanton'd  with  thy  breakers." 

"We  shall  conclude  these  illustrations  of  alliteration 
with  a  few  examples  from  the  last  production  of  our 
Poet  Laureate,  whose  tuneful  ear  and  careful  study  of 
Lis  art  have  detected  the  graceful  use  of  this  Saxon 
ornament  in  the  practice  of  his  great  Master  in  harmo- 
nious verse — "  the  mighty-mouthed  inventor  of  liarmo- 
aies" : —

In  tlic  Lh/Jls  of  the  King,  we  meet  with  frequent  ex-

ASSONANCE. 

As    an   intermediate    ornament    between    alliteration 
and  perfect  rhyme,   a  few   remarks   may    be   made   on 
assonance.     This  can  scarcely  be  regarded  as  a  charac- 
teristic of  English  poetry  in  past  times,  and  is  certainly 
not  to  be  considered  as  such  in  the  present  day ;  but  as 
it  may  be   regarded  as   the  principle   on   which  those 
rhymes  that  Walker  has  called   "  allowable,"  but  which 
in  modei-n  poetry  would  be  called  "  intolerable,"  were 
introduced,   it  seems  here    to  claim   a   passing  notice. 
Assonance,  therefore, is  apeculiar correspondence  insound 
in   the  termination  of    verses,   less  comjilete  than  that 
of  rhyme.      We  think  it  may  be  detected  in  the  poetry 
of  Greece  ;  but  it  has  been  most  carefully  cultivated  in 
the  romantic  and  dramatic  compositions  of  Spain.     In 
assonance,  while  the  vowels  of  the  last  accented  syllable, 
and  in  all  subsequent  syllables  are  the  same,  the  con- 
sonants must  all   be  different,  otherwise  consonance  or 
I'hyme  would  be  produced.     "  Thus  havharo,  which  has 
the    accent    on    the    antepenultimate,    is    an    assonant 
with  c«lamo  and   pldtano.     B^^scas,  which  is  accented 
on  the  penultima,  is  an  assonant  with  c»r(m  and  s»ya. 
So  in  English,  hard//,  manl^,  and  carr^  would  be  asson- 
ants."    Assonants,  are  not,  however,  exhibited  in  pairs, 
but  are  continued  throughout  the  whole  poem,  without 
any  other  change  than  that  of  blank  verse  with  the  as- 
sonants.     Assonants  are  always  used  by  the   classical 
dramatists   of  Spain,  but  in  the    lyric    poetry    of  that 
country  rhyme  is  more  frequently  adopted.     This  prin- 
ciple, we  conceive,  may  account  for  what  would  now  be 
accounted  impeifect  rhymes  in  our  ballad  poetry,  and 
thus  may  have  familiarised  its  use  in  poems  of  higher 
pretensions.     This  imperfection  would  be  less  perceived 
in  the  song  or  the  ballad,  because,  as  these  poems  were 
produced  rather  to  be  sung  than  read,  and  as  the  voice

of  the  singer  would  dwell  on  tbe  vowel  sounds,  it  fol- 
lows that,  if  these  were  perfect,  the  terminating  con- 
sonants would  glide  off  without  producing  an  unpleasant 
efi'ect  on  the  ear  of  the  listener.  It  is  unuec;ssary  to 
give  examples  of  a  practice  so  well  known,  especially 
as  it  is  not  now  tolerated  in  poetical  composition  ;  we 
shall  merely  note  that,  in  glancing  over  some  produc- 
tions of  ancient  minstrelsy,  we  find  the  following  words 
associated  with  one  another  in  the  place  of  rhymes ; 
stand  with  man  ;  black  with,  hat ;  sat  with  clap  ;  town 
with  round  ;  ask  with  blast ;  past  with  glass ;  mark 
with  hat ;  heels  with  fields ;  leek  with  sweet,  &c.,  and 
the  same  principle  may  be  seen  in  the  following  stanza 
of  "  the  grand  old  ballad  "  of  Sir  Patrick  Spence : — 

"  0  forty  miles  off  Aberdeen, 
It's  fifty  fathom  deep, 
A.nd  there  lies  good  Sir  Patrick  Spence, 
\Vi'  the  Scots  Lords  at  his  feet." 


RHYME. 

We  have  seen  at  what  an  early  period  the  poets  of 
Palestine  began  a  certain  number  of  lines  or  stanzas 
with  the  same  letter ;  it  was,  therefore,  but  a  mode  of 
this  fashion  to  terrainaie  certain  poetical  lines  with  tlju 
same  letters  or  sounds,  which  constituted  what  has  been 
termed  consonance  or  rhyme.  It  is  perhaps  impossible 
to  ti-ace  this  ornamental  fringe,  this  purple  band  on  the 
princely  toga  of  the  poet,  to  its  origin ;  but,  although  it 
appears  to  have  been  despised  by  the  Greeks  and  their 
followers,  the  Romans,  yet  there  is  ground  of  belief,  that 
it  was  early  exhibited  and  admired  in  the  East.  We 
have  found  that  it  was  unknown  to  the  Anglo-Saxon 
poet,  whose  distinguishing  ornament,  like  a  fillet  on  his 
priestly  brow,  was  alliteration  ;  and,  as  fashion  in  poetry 
as  well  as  in  other  matters,  has  its  times,  so  it  may  bo 
safely  presumed,  that,  as  alliteration  began  to  ebb,  so 
rhyme  began  to  flow ;  and,  as  in  the  case  of  two  tides 
that  run  in  opposite  directions,  there  will  be  a  middle 
space  in  which  the  direction  of  the  current  is  doubtful, 
so  we  shall  find  a  period  in  our  literature  when  poems 
exhibited  the  double  decoration  of  both  alliteration  and

rli3Tne.  The  first  of  these,  in  the  order  of  time,  was  a 
translation  by  Layamon  of  Waco's  Le  Brut  cl'Aiiglderre  ; 
aud,  as  the  poena  which  he  transkited  was  in  rhyme,  it 
is  probable  that  this  circumstance  suggested  to  him  the 
propriety  of  endeavouring  to  imitate  his  copy  in  this 
respect.  His  work  is  supposed  to  belong  to  the  latter 
p^rt  of  the  twelfth  century.  The  following  is  a  bi'ief 
specimen  : — 

"  Tha,  at  Hum  veorthc  dreie, 
The  Kiu'j^  gon  to  spekene, 
And  agsii'  his  gode  cnihten 
All  heore  rihten ; 
He  get'  seolver,  ho  gsef  gold, 
Ho  get'  hois,  ho  get'lond, 
Oiistles  and  clsethcs  eke, 
His  monnen  he    iqueude." 

Such  is  a  specimen  of  early  rhyme,  which  henceforth 
began  to  hold  divided  sway  with  alliteration,  till  the 
time  of  Chaucer,  when  rhyme  began  to  prevail,  which 
henceforth  maintained  its  sway,  although,  as  we  have 
seen,  alliteration  has  by  no  means  been  banished  from 
the  fields  of  poesy.  A  few  early  specimens  of  the  mix- 
ture of  these  poetical  ornaments  may  not  be  unaccept- 
able. Our  first  extract  is  fi'om.  the  Kivrj  of  Tars,  the 
composition  of  which  has  been  referred  to  the  beginning 
of  the  fourteenth  century  : — 

"  The  Soudan  sat  at  his  dess, 
Y-served  of  the  first  mess  ; 

They  comen  into  the  hall 
To-fore  the  prince  proud  in  press, 
Their  tale  they  tolden  withouten  lees, 

And  on  their  knees  'gan  fall 

"  And  said  :  *  Sire,  the  King  of  Tars 
Of  wicked  words  is  not  scarce, 

Heathen  hound  he  doth  thee  call ; 
And,  ere  his  daughter  he  gave  thee  till, 
Thine  heart-blood  ho  will  spill, 
And  til  J'  barons  all.'  " 

As  there  were  some  that  early  despised  alliteration,  so 
we  find  that  there  were  those  who  eqaally  despised 
fliyme.     Ben     Jonson  spoke  of  it  as 

"  Wresting  words  from  their  true  calling  , 
Propping  verse  for  fear  of  falling 
To  the  ground ; 


x'iv  THE  EDITO:;  S  I'liEtACE. 

"  Jointing  syllables,  drowning  letters, 
Fastening  vowels,  as  with  fetters 
They  were  bound." 

Marvel,  in  addi-essinfr  Milton,  says  : — 

"  Their  fancies  like  our  bushy-points  appcfir, 
The  poets  tag  them,  wc  for  fashion  wtar." 

And  even  Dryden,  himself  so  great  a  master  of  rhyme, 

says : —  . 

"  Till  barbarous  nations,  and  more  barbarous  timc». 
Debased  the  majesty  of  verse  to  rhymes; 
These  rude  at  first,  a  kind  of  tinkling  prose, 
That  limped  along  and  hobbled  at  the  close." 

^lilton  likewise  despised  these  terminal  jiiiglings  or 
tatr.s  ;  yet  his  consistency  is  not  very  apparent  in  his  fre- 
quent use  of  alliteration.  Whilst  rhyme  may  be  dis- 
pensed with  in  the  epic,  which  may  be  supposed  to  be 
sustained  by  the  dignity  of  the  subject  -and  the  grandeui 
of  its  style,  yet,  in  spite  of  all  that  has  been  said  against 
both  alliteration  and  rhyme,  it  has  been  felt  that  the 
lower  species  of  poetry  require  the  adventitious  aid  of 
these  ornaments,  which,  when  the  one  is  judiciously 
used,  and  the  other  employed  in  its  purity,  are  so  far 
from  jarring  on  the  ear  that  they  afibrd  it  no  inconsider- 
able pleasure.  But  when  alliteration  is  crowded  and 
rhymes  are  either  impure,  or  occasion  the  inversion  of 
the  line,  then  the  art  of  the  rhymer,  or  rather  his  inabi- 
lity to  manage  his  materials,  becomes  so  palpable  as  to 
be  offensive. 

Rhyme  is  not,  sti'ictly  speaking,  "  the  correspondence 
of  sounds  in  the  terminating  words  or  syllables  of  two 
verses ;"  for  in  true  or  pure  rhymes  there  must  be  a 
dissimilarity  connected  with  tliis  correspondence  of 
sounds  ;  and  that  dissimilarity  will  be  found  in  the  con- 
sonants immediately  preceding  the  terminal  sounds. 
Thus  the  two  words  rain  and  reiyn,  differing  both  in 
their  orthography  and  meaning,  have  an  exact  "  corres- 
pondence of  sound,"  but  yet  they  would  not  therefore 
foi-m  correct  rh\Tnes ;  and  we  find  the  reason  in  the 
sameness  of  the  initial  consonants  :  let  us  therefore 
change  one  of  the  consonants,  and  we  shall  immediately 
have  words  that  constitute  perfect  rhymes  ;  thus  : — 

"  The  school  we  name  a  world, — for  vice  and  /Jain, 
Fraud  and  contention^  there  begin  to  reign  ;  " 


TUE  EDITOR  S  PREFACE.  XJ7 

Or  prefix  another  consonant  that  will  coalesce  with  r, 
and  we  shall  have  another  word,  Irain,  and  a  perfect 
rhyme  ;  thus  : — 

"  But  still,  my  friend,  that  ancient  spirit  n  igns, 
His  powers  support  the  credit  of  his  Aiains' — 

Should  the  rhyming  syllables,  however,  both  have  the 
same  consonant,  a  syllable  protixed  to  one  of  the  words 
will  not  fit  the  words  for  rhyming  together.  Thus,  in 
the  following  example,  the  rhyming  syllable  in  both 
lines  is  the  same,  although  one  of  them  is  preceded 
by  another  syllable,  and,  therefore,  the  rhyme  is  im- 
proper : — 

"  What  wonder  I  was  all  unwise 

To  shape  the  song  for  your  delight, 
Like  long-taild  birds  of  Paradise, 

'J  hat  float  thro'  heaven  and  cannot  light." 

The  rhymes  in  the  following  couplet,  for  a  similar 
reason,  are  equally  faulty  : — ■ 

"  And  then,  that  instant,  there  appeared  the  maid, 
By  his  sad  looks  in  her  approach  dismay'd." 

In  the  case  of  a  female  syllabic,  or  double  ending,  the 
rhyme  is  in  the  accented  syllables,  and,  therefore  the 
differing  consonants  must  precede  them  : — 
•'  Faint  she  grew  and  ever  fainter, 
As  she  murmur'd  '  Oh,  that  he 
Were  once  more  that  viUage  painter, 
Which  did  win  my  heart  from  mo.' " 

It  may  be  farther  remarked,  regarding  double  end- 
ings, that  words  ending  in  tion  and  inrj,  perhaps  from 
the  facility  of  finding  them,  are  avoided  by  our  best 
poets ;  neither  is  it  correct  to  say  that  double  endings 
are  peculiar  to  ludicrous  composition,  as  is  sufficiently 
evinced  by  the  poem  from  which  the  preceding  extract 
has  been  taken.  No  doubt  double  endings  and  com- 
pound words  are  used  in  ludicrous  composition,  but  they 
are  not  essentially  ludicrous. 

Rhyme  does  not  appear  to  have  been  admitted  into 
the  poetry  of  the  Romans  as  a  uniform  ornament ;  but 
we  frc^quently  find  the  semifeet  of  the  pentameter  con- 
stituting rhymes,  which  we  can  scarcely  suppose  oc- 
curred per  incuriam ;  thus  : — 

"  Dum  lie.  t,  in  liquids  nat  tihi  liiitcr  aqu«." 


xlvi  TH£  editor's  PREFACfi. 

Ovid's  poem,  called  Fasti,  is  wholly  written  in  Elegiac 
verse,  and  affords  innumerable  examples  of  this  prac- 
tice ;  but,  instead  of  giving  a  number  of  unconnected 
lines,  we  shall  rather  present  a  brief  passage,  in  Avhich 
the  frequency  of  rhyme  in  the  pentameter  lines  will  be 
readily  perceived : — 

"  Quid  tibi  cum  gladio  f  duLiani  rege,  navita,  pinum. 

Nun  sunt  hajc  digits  arina  tenenda  tnis. 
lUo  metu  pavidus,  ^lortem  non  dcprecor,  inquit: 

Scd  liceat  sumpt«  pauca  reforre  lyra. 
Dant  veniam,  ridentque  moram.    Capit  ille  coronam, 

QiicB  possit  crines,  Phoebe,  decere  tuos. 
Iiiduerat  Tyrio  bis  tinetam  inurice  pallara  : 

Reddidit  icta  s\ios  pollico  chorda  sonos : 
Protinus  in  medias  ornatus  desilit  undas; 

Spargitur  impulse  caarula  puppis  aqua. 
Inde — fide  majus — tergo  delphina  recurvo 

Se  memorant  oneri  supposuissc  novo. 
Ille  sedens  citharamque  tenet,  pretiumque  vehendi 

Cautat,  et  sequores*  carmine  mulcet  aqu««." 

Our  own  poets,  in  their  minor  productions,  have 
apparently  imitated  this  practice  in  such  lines  as  do  not 
rhyme  with  their  corresi^onding  lines,  as  in  the  other 
verses  of  the  poem  ;  thus  Campbell,  in  Lord  Ullin's 
Dauijhter : — 

"  But  still  as  wilder  blew  the  wind, 
And  as  the  night  grew  drearer, 
A  down  the  glen  rode  armed  m(». 
Their  trampling  sounded  nearer." 

Tennyson  has  uniformly  adopted  this  construction  in 
the  fifth  line  of  the  stanza  of  Ladij  Clara  Vere  da  Vere:  - 

"  Howe'er  it  be,  it  seems  to  me, 
'Tis  only  noble  to  bo  good. 
Kind  hearts  arc  more  than  coronets, 
And  simple  faith  than  Norman  blood." 

As  our  remarks  and  examples,  however,  have  far  ex- 
ceeded the  bounds  prescribed  to  us,  we  must  now  con- 
clude with  the  hope  that  they  may  both  interest  the 
admirer  of  verse,  and  aid  the  youthful  aspirant  to  poetic 

fame.

INTRODUCTION, 


INTRODUCTION. 


Amokg  the  various  atteinpts  to  tUcilitfite  the  ortliography 
and  pronunciation  of  the  English  language,  it  is  not  a  little 
.surprising  that  the  method  here  adopted  should  have  been 
either  totally  overlooked  or  neglected.  A  Rhyming  Dic- 
tionary in  a  living  language,  ior  the  purposes  of  poetry, 
seems  no  very  unnatural  or  useless  production,  and  imper- 
fect sketches  of  such  a  work  have  already  been  given  us 
by  Poole  and  Bysshe  ;  but  no  one  has  hitherto  thought  of 
making  a  dictionary  of  terminations  subservient  to  the  art 
of  spelling  and  pronouncing.  The  more  obvious  use  of  a 
vvoi-k  of  this  kind  was  perhaps  an  obstacle  to  the  comple- 
tion of  it,  and  its  latent,  though  more  useful  qualities,  were 
by  this  means  unobserved.  A  mere  rhyming  dictionary 
was  looked  on  either  as  a  bauble  for  school  boys,  or  a  re- 
Bource  for  poetasters  ;  and  the  nobler  ends  of  pointing 
out  the  analog)'^  of  orthography  and  pronunciation,  like 
many  other  advantages,  were  overlooked  in  the  insigni- 
ficancy and  puerility  of  the  means. 

Johnson's  Dictionary  is  scarcely  more  valuable  for  so 
nicely  tracing  the  various  and  almost  vanishing  shades  of 
the  same  word,  than  for  furnishing  us  with  so  copious  a 
collection  of  nearly  similar  words  of  a  different  form. 
Those  who  understand  the  harmony  of  prose,  pay  a 
cheerful  tribute  to  Dr.  Johnson  on  this  account,  as  he 
admits  them  to  a  more  easy  and  extensive  view  of  the 
powers  of  the  language,  than  can  possibly  be  suggested 
by  the  memory  alone  ;  and  by  this  means  assists  that 
delicacy  of  choice,  on  which  the  precision  and  harmony 
of  expression  so  essentially  depend.  This  advantage, 
which  perhaps  was  not  foreseen  by  Dr.  Johnson  himself, 
was  no  more  than  a  necessary,  though  not  an  obvious, 
consequence  of  so  copious  and  perfect  a  distribution  of 
the  language  into  its  constituent  parts  ;  and  without  the 
vanity  of  pretending  to  a  parallel,  it  may  naturally  be 
presumed,  that  an  arrangement,  which  is  perfectly  new, 


d 


I 

may  possibly  produce  advantages  which  were  entirely 
unnoticed  before  this  arrangement  was  actually  drawn 
out ;  for  experience  furnishes  us  with  a  variet}'  of  in- 
stances of  unexpected  improvements  arising  from  new, 
and  perhaps  fortuituous  combinations,  which  were  never 
suspected  by  theorists,  until  a  discovery  had  been  made. 
The  English  Language,  it  may  Idc  said,  has  hitherto 
been  seen  through  but  one  end  of  the  perspective  ;  and 
though  terminations  form  the  distinguishing  character 
and  specific  difference  of  every  language  iu  the  world,  we 
have  never  till  now  had  a  prospect  of  our  own,  iu  this 
point  of  view.     Dr.  Wallis  has,  with  great  penetration 
and  sagacit}^,  shown  the  general  import  of  initial  con- 
sonants ;  and  with  more  appearance  of  truth  than  could 
have  been  conceived,  has  evinced,  that  words  of  a  simi- 
lar signification,    which    ai'e   radically    English,    coni- 
mence  with  nearly  the  same  radical  articulations.     Mr. 
Elphinston  too  has  given  us  a  very  good  idea  of  the 
general   impoi-t   of  terminations,  by  strictures    on   the 
greatest  part  of  them  ;  but  none  have  yet  thought  it 
worth  their  while  to  give  us  a  complete  and  alphabetical 
enumei'ation  of  the  whole,  by  which  alone  we  can  have 
an  adequate  idea  of  every  part.     In  this  arrangement  of 
the  language,  we  easily  discover  its  idiomatic  structure, 
and  find  its  several  parts  fall  into  their  proper  classes, 
and  almost  every  word  as  much   distinguished  by  its 
termination   as  its  sense.     We  at  one   glance  perceive 
the  peculiar  vegetation  of  our   own  language,  and  the 
alteration  foreign  words  undergo,  by  being  transplanted 
into  English  soil.     And  thus  by  an  acquaintance  with  the 
specific  character  of  every  termination,  we  are  the  more 
readily  led  to  assimilate  foreign  terms,  by  stamping  them 
with  the  cuiTent  impression  of  our  own.

ORTHOGRAPHY. 

But  an  analogical  insight  into  the  recesses  of  fonnation 
is  not  every  advantage  ai'ising  from  this  new  and  complete 
prospect  of  it.  Our  orthography  is  not  only  an  insuper- 
able difficulty  to  foreigners,  but  an  [endless]  source  of 
dispute  and  perplexity  to  ourselves  ;  and,  tiiougli  it  would 


bo  in  vain  to  think  of  removing  every  intricacy  that  is 
constantly  arising  from  indolence  and  caprice,  yet  that 
a  considerable  number  may  be  remedied  by  a  view  of 
the  general  laws  of  formation,  will  be  readily  conceived 
by  those  who  enquire  into  the  origin  of  the  difficulties 
complained  of.  ]3y  an  affectation  of  approximating  to 
the  ortliography  of  the  learned  languages,  we  have  rooted 
out  many  useful  letters  that  sprang  up  naturally  with 
exotic  words,  and  have  been  led  to  exclude  all  letters  in 
our  compounds  which  are  not  actually  pronounced, 
though  their  existence  in  these  words  is  often  no  less 
necessary  to  prevent  ambiguity  than  in  the  simples 
themselves. 

Thus  the  useful  servile  e  is  hai'dly  ever  suffered  to 
have  a  place  in  composition,  though,  from  a  feeling  of  its 
importance,  we  are  almost  intuitively  tempted  to  let  it 
remain  in  the  branches,  wlienever  we  recollect  it  in  the 
root.  The  omission  or  insertion  of  this  letter  occasions 
a  numerous  catalogue  of  rules  and  exceptions.  The  other 
serviles,  I,  s,  &c.  are  no  less  absurdly  omitted  in  com- 
position, though  their  power  remains,  and  by  this  means 
both  orthography  and  pronunciation  are  confounded. 
The  duplication  of  consonants,  when  an  additional  ter- 
mination is  assumed,  forms  another  difficulty  in  our 
tfci-minational  orthography,  as  it  may  be  called,  Avhicli 
has  embarrassed  the  most  correct  and  accurate  writers. 
Now  the  only  clew  to  extricate  us  from  this  labyrinth 
seems  the  method  here  adopted.  An  immediate  view  of 
the  similar  formation  of  similar  parts  of  speech,  gives  us 
a  competent  idea  of  the  laws  of  terminatioual  ortho- 
graphy, and  enables  us  to  detect  the  least  violation  of 
them.  Thus  when  in  our  best  dictionaries  I  find  saleable, 
tameahh,  and  a  few  other  words  of  the  same  form,  retain 
the  silent  e,  I  conclude  these  are  either  slips  of  the  pen, 
or  errors  of  the  press ;  for  that  the  whole  current  of 
similar  endings,  as  hlamahle,  adorable,  definable,  &c.  omit 
the  e,  and  that  no  reason  appears  for  retaining  it  in  the 
former,  and  not  in  the  latter  words. 

But  in  order  to  detect  the  orthographical  irregularities 
of  our  language,  it  will  be  necessary  first  to  lay  down 
such  general  maxims  in  spelling  as  have  almost  universally 
taken  place.     By  these  we  may  judge  of  the  iraproprietj 


Hi 

of  those  deviations,  whicb  are  owing  perhaps  to  a  waul 
of  seeing  the  laws  of  formation  as  here  exhibited,  and 
knowing  how  far  the  irregularity  extends. 

ORTHOGRAPHICAL  APHORISMS. 

APHORISM    I. 

Monosyllables  ending  with/,  Z,  or  s,  preceded  by  a  sin- 
gle vowel,  double  the  iinal  consonant;  as  staff,  mill, pass, 
<fec.  of,  if,  as,  is,  gas,  has,  icas,  yes,  us,  thus,  are  the  only 
exceptions  ;  and  add,  bntf,  ebh,  egg,  odd,  err,  buzz,  are  the 
only  words  where  other  consonants  aredoubledin  the  same 
situation. 

APHORISM  II. 

Words  ending  with  y,  preceded  by  a  consonant,  form 
the  plural  of  nouns,  the  persons  of  verbs,  verbal  nouns, 
past  participles,  comparatives,  and  superlatives,  by 
changing  y  into  i ;  as  spy,  spies,  I  carry,  thou  carricst,  he 
carridh,  or  carries,  carrier,  carried,  hapjjy,  haprpier,  hap- 
piest ;  but  the  present  participle  in  ing  retains  the  y, 
that  i  may  not  be  doubled,  as  carrying  ;  y  preceded  by 
a  vowel  is  never  thus  changed,  as  hoy,  hoys,  I  cloy,  lie 
cloys,  &c. 

Observations. 

By  this  rule  we  may  perceive  the  impropriety  of 
Avriting /??/pr  {or flier,  and  dcfyer  tor  defer,  and  the  still 
greater  impropriety  of  writing /a^ne?*,  (finer,  and  softner, 
i'or  faltener,  oftener,  softener ;  though  we  meet  with  them 
in  our  best  dictionaries ;  for  the  common  terminations 
of  verbs,  verbal  nouns,  participles,  Ac.  never  occasion 
any  contraction  in  the  radical  word  ;  entrance  and  re- 
membrance pretend  kindi-ed  -with  the  French  entrant 
and  remembrer,  and  are  therefore  incorrigible;  but  won- 
drous ought  to  be  written  with  the  e,  as  well  as  slander- 
ous ;  and  if  we  write  dexterous,  why  should  we  see 
sinistruus  ? 

APHORISM  III. 

Words  ending  with  the  hissing  consonants,  ch,  s,  >7t, 
SB,  z,  form  the  plural  of  nouns  by  adding  es,  and  the  per- 
sons of  verbs  by  est,  etii,  or  e.s',  as  church,  churches,  1 
march,  thou  marchest,   he  marcheth,  or  marches.     Gcni- 


liii 

tives  of  words  ending  in  these  consonants  are  formed  by 
addinjf  s  with  an  apostrophe;  as  SL  Jarncn' a  churchy  the 
church's  ceremonies. 

APHOKISM  IV 

Words  ending  with  any  consonant  and  silent  e,  form 
their  phiral  by  adding  s  only,  as  a  jj/rtce,  jjZaces,  and  per- 
sons oi"  verbs,  by  adding  st,  ih,  or  s,  as  I  place,  thou 
jjlacest,  he  placeth,  or  places.  Genitives  of  words  ending 
with  these  letters  are  formed,  by  adding  s  with  an  apos- 
trophe, as  the  place's  pleasantness.  Material  adjectives 
in  y,  and  comparatives  in  ish,  are  formed,  from  substan- 
tives of  this  termination  by  omitting  the  silent  e,  and 
annexing  y  or  ish  to  the  consonant,  as  ropy,  vnny,  slavish, 
swinish,  &c.  from  rope,  wine,  slave,  swine,  &c.  The  past 
participles,  verbal  nouns,  and.  comparatives  and  super- 
latives, add  d,r,  and  st,  to  the  simple,  as  placed,  a  placer, 
wise,  vAser,  wisest;  but  the  present  participle  cuts  off  the 
e,  and  annexes  ing,  as  placing.  However,  where  the 
silent  e  is  preceded  by  the  soft  g,  the  e  must  be  pre- 
served, if  the  sense  of  the  word  would  otherwise  be  am- 
biguous ;  for  we  have  no  other  means  of  distinguishing 
singeing,  the  participle  oi  to  singe,  fi'om  siiiging,  the  par- 
ticiple of  to  sing  ;  sioingcing,  from  sunnging,  &c.  As  to 
cringing,  twinging,  &c.  from  cringe,  iivinge,  &c.,  we  trust 
to  the  common  power  of  the  letters,  as  we  have  no  verbs 
to  cring,  ticing,  &c.,  to  occasion  any  mistake ;  for  with 
respect  to  participles  and  verbal  nouns,  a  previous  know- 
ledge of  the  theme  is  supposed  to  be  indispensably 
necessary. — See  Aphoi'ism  x. 

APHOEISM  V. 

Words  ending  with  a  single  consonant,  preceded  by  a 
single  vowel,  and  with  the  accent  on  the  last  syllable, 
upon  assuming  an  additional  syllable,  beginning  with  a 
vowel  or  y,  double  the  consonant,  as  to  abet,  an  abettor ; 
to  begin,  a  beginning;  a  fen,  fenny ;  thin,  thinnish,  &c. 
but  if  a  diphthong  precede,  or  the  accent  be  on  the  pre- 
ceding s^dlable,  the  consonant  remains  single,  as  to  toil, 
toiling;  in  offer,  an  offering,  &c. 


liv 

Ohservaiwns. 

By  this  rule,  which  is  founded  on  an  intention  of  as- 
certaining the  quantity  of  the  accented  vowel  by  donb- 
ling  the  consonant,  and  which  would  be  infinitely  use- 
ful and  agreeable  to  the  analogy  of  the  language,  if  ex- 
tended universally,  we  perceive  the  impropriety  of  spell- 
ing the  adventitious  S3-llable3  of  terminations  with 
double  letters,  when  the  accent  is  not  really  upon  them. 
Bishop  Lowth  has  justly  remarked,  that  this  error  fre- 
quently takes  place  in  the  words,  worshipping,  counselling 
&c.,  which,  having  the  accent  on  the  first  syllable,  ought 
to  be  written  ivorshipiag,  counseling,  &c.  An  ignor- 
ance of  this  rule  has  led  many  to  write  bigotted  for 
bigoted ;  and  from  this  spelling  has  frequently  arisen  a 
false  pronunciation ;  [or  rather  the  mis-spelling  has  ' 
arisen  from  a  former  mode  of  pronunciation,  in  which  the  } 
accent  was  placed  on  the  penult,  as  is  occasionally  ' 
done  in  Scotland  to  the  present  day  ;  ]  but  no  letter  j 
seems  to  be  more  frequently  doubled  improperly  than  I.  j 
Why  we  should  write  libelling,  levelling,  revelling,  and 
yet  offering,  sitffering,  reasoning,  I  am  totally  at  a  loss  to  I 
determine ;  and  unless  I  can  give  a  better  plea  than  any  I 
other  letter  in  the  alphabet  for  being  doubled  in  this 
situation,  I  must,  in  the  style  of  Lucian,  in  his  trial  of 
the  letter  T,  declai'e  for  an  expulsion.  [Since  Wal- 
kei''s  time  the  superfluous  t  has  been  rejected  from 
bigotted;  but  the  I  in  the  other  words  still  improperly 
retains  its  duplicity.] 

APHORISM  VI. 

Words  ending  with  y,  preceded  by  a  consonant,  upon 
assuming  an  additional  syllable  beginning  with  a  con- 
sonant, change  y  into  i,  as  happy,  happily,  happiness; 
but  y  preceded  by  a  vowel  is  never  thus  changed,  as 
coy,  coyly,  ga/y,  gayly,  &c.  [but  gaily  is  of  daily  occur- 
rence.]

Essay  on  Orit. 

Thougli  in  the  first  edition  of  this  Essay,  published 
by  Pope  himself,  we  find  this  word  written  dri/lij.  Why 
the  y  should  be  thus  converted  into  i  is  not  easily  con- 
ceived, unless  it  was  feared  we  should  confound  words 
of  our  own  language  with  those  derived  from  the  Greek  ; 
for,  with  respect  to  the  distinction  of  the  plural  number 
from  the  genitive  case,  as  this  does  not  prevent  the 
similitude  when  a  vowel  precedes,  why  should  we  fear 
a  mistake  between  Jl)js  and  ffifs  any  more  than  between 
boys  and  boy's  ?  It  is  highly  probable  that  the  origin  of 
this  insignificant  and  embarrassing  change  of  the  y  into 
i,  arose  from  the  taste  and  sagacity  of  English  printers, 
who  considered  the  y  as  bearing  too  little  proportion  to 
the  number  of  the  other  letters,  and  made  this  weighty 
reason  the  foundation  of  the  alteration.  But  to  this  al- 
teration once  allowed  by  custom,  even  a  Baskervillc 
must  submit ;  and  certainty  being  more  the  object  of 
language  than  perfect  proirrlety,  it  would  be  the  last  ab- 
surdity, to  deprive  a  rule,  which  has  nothing  else  to 
recommend  it,  of  its  only  merit — uniformity, 

APHORISM  VII. 

Words  ending  with  any  double  letter  but  Z,  and  taking 
tiGss,  less,  hj,  or  fid,  after  them,  preserve  the  letter  double; 
as  harmlcssness,  carelessness,  carelessly,  stiffness,  stiffly,  suc- 
cessful, distressful,  &c.  ;  but  those  words  ending  with 
double  I,  and  taking  ?iess,  less,  ly,  or  ful,  after  them,  omit 
one  I,  as  fulness,  slcilless,  fully. 

Observations. 

Why  one  I  should  be  omitted  when  less  or  ly  is  as- 
sumed, may  be  easily  conceived  to  arise  from  the  uncouth 
appearance  three  letters  of  the  same  kind  would  have 
when  meeting  together  ;  but  why  the  analogy  between 
these  simples  and  compounds  should  be  destroyed  when 
ness  or  ful  is  assumed,  is  not  easy  to  comprehend  ;  why 
should  we  not  write  dullness,  fullness,  skillful,  andivillful.

IS  well  as  stiffness,  gruffness,  crossly,  and  crossness  '!  Nay, 
the  propi'iety  of  this  orthography  makes  it  almost  impos- 
sible to  root  it  out  entirely,  and  we  find  these  lour 
words,  illness,  feUness,  shrillness,  and  stilluess,  left  in  our 
best  dictionary  with  the  double  I,  but  a  greater  number 
of  words  of  the  same  form  having  the  single  /,  as  smal- 
uess,  tailless,  chilness,  dahtess,  fulness,  and  the  long  cata- 
logue of  words  of  this  termination,  as  wilfulness,  hlissful' 
ness,  &c.,  sufficiently  show  to  which  orthography  custonj 
has  the  greatest  partiality  ;  and  indeed  as  the  rage  for 
curtailing  oui'  language  of  double  letters  seems  incurable, 
the  disease  will  at  least  be  more  tolerable  if  we  deter- 
mine its  progress  to  some  uniformity,  and  since  there  is 
no  hope  of  restoring  the  lost  I  to

ably to  the  general  current  of  orthography,  written  hluly, 
hluness,  ruful,  &c.  The  reasons  seem  to  be  these  :  wher- 
ever the  general  laws  of  pronunciation  in  compounds 
supply  the  place  of  serviles  in  simple  words,  there  the 
Bervilcs  are  omitted  ;  but  bluly,  hluness,  ruful,  &c.,  ac-

cording  to  the  commou  rule  of  pronouncing,  would  be 
as  justly  sounded  as  hluehj,  hlueness,  rueful,  &c.,  and  at 
tbe  same  time  would  preclude  the  possible  mistake 
which  might  arise  if  the  simples  hhie  and  rue  were  not 
understood  to  be  the  root  of  the  words  in  question  ;  for 
in  this  case  hlueness  and  rupful  might  be  pronounced  as 
if  divided  into  hlu-e-ness  and  ru-e-ful ;  but  as  it  is  neces- 
sary the  spelling  should  convey  the  sound  of  the  com- 
pound, without  supposing  a  previous  knowledge  of  the 
simples,  and  without  being  liable  to  a  double  pronuncia- 
tion, the  omission  of  e  in  hluhj  and  bluness,  as  well  as  in

Able  and  ihle,  when  incorporated  into  words  ending

word,  the  e  is  then  preserved,  as  changeable, peaceable,  &c. 

Observations. 

This  exception  is  founded  on  the  necessity  of  showing 
that  the  preceding  c  and  y  in  these  words  are  soft,  which 
might  possibly  be  mistaken,  and  pronounced  hard,  if 
written  changable,  peacable,  &c.  Another  exception 
seems  to  take  place  in  the  compounds  oi  move  audi p-ove, 
which  are  generally  written  moveable,  proveable,  &c., 
but  on  an  inspection  into  all  the  compounds  of  these 


words  in  "  Johnson's  Dictionary,"  we  find  the  e  so  often 
omitted  as  to  make  it 'very  doubtful  whether  these  words 
are  an  exception  to  the  general  rule  or  not,  for  thus  they 
stand —

The  uncertainty  of  our  orthography  m  this  class  of 
words  may  be  presumed  to  arise  from  a  confused  idea  of 
the  necessity  of  ascertaining  the  sound  of  the  simple  by 
inserting  the  silent  e,  and  the  general  custom  of  omitting 
tliis  letter  when  words  are  compounded  with  these  ter- 
minations ;  and  it  will  require  some  attention  to  dis 
cover  to  which  of  these  modes  of  spelling  we  ought  to 
give  the  preference ;  however,  till  better  reasons  are 
offered  for  a  decision,  let  us  suppose  the  following  : — 

The  first  object  of  spelling  compound  words  seems  to 
be  merely  a  conveyance  of  the  sound,  without  necessarily 
supposing  a  knowledge  of  the  simples  ;  that  the  elements 
of  which  the  compound  is  formed,  may  be  sufficient  of 
themselves  to  suggest  their  sound.  The  next  object  of 
spelling  compounds  seems  to  be  an  omission  of  all  ser- 
viles  in  the  simples  which  were  not  actually  sounded, 
and  whose  use  may  be  supposed  to  be  superseded  in  the 
compounds  by  the  general  laws  of  English  pronuncia- 
tion, which,  contrary  to  those  of  the  learned  languages, 
suppose  every  accented  vowel  to  be  long  and  open,  which 
is  followed  but  by  a  single  consonant.  Thus  the  e  in 
desirable  is  omitted,  because  the  common  rules  of  pro- 
nunciation indicate  that  the  accent  upon  i,  followed  by 
a  consonant  succeeded  by  a  vowel,  with  the  accent  upon 
it,  has  necessarily  the  same  sound  as  in  desire.  But  when 
the  radical  letters  have  not  their  ordinary  sound  in  the 


lix 

simples,  the  first  law  of  ortliography  takes  place,  and 
inserts  the  servile  e  to  suggest  the  souud  of  the  simple, 
when  blended  with  the  compound ;  for  though  we  are 
frugal  of  our  letters  to  a  fault,  yet  when  the  sound  of 
any  of  the  radical  letters  might  be  endangered  b\r  such 
an  omission,  wo  then  find  the  e  preserved.  Nor  is  a 
previous  knowledge  of  the  simple  supposed  to  be  a  suffi- 
cient security,  as  in  changeahle,  peaceable,  &c.  From 
hence  we  may  gather  that  every  compound  word  is  sup- 
posed to  convey  its  own  sound  agreeably  to  the  common 
sound  of  the  letters,  without  the  necessity  of  having  re- 
course to  a  knowledge  of  the  simples  from  which  it  is 
formed,  and  therefore  as  the  sound  of  o  in  move,  prove, 
&c.,  is  not  the  general  sound  of  that  letter,  and  conse- 
quently if  the  e  were  not  preserved  to  suggest  the  simple, 
it  might  be  liable  to  the  sound  of  o  in  rove,  grove,  love,  or 
shove,  we  find  it  perfectly  agreeable  to  the  first  genera] 
law  of  English  orthography  to  retain  the  letter  by  which 
alone  the  sound  of  the  radical  part  of  the  word  can  be 
ascertained  ;  and  therefore  as  we  very  justly  write  move- 
able, pi-oveable,  &c.,  so  we  ought  to  write  revioveable,  im- 
proveable,  &c.,  moving,  proving,  &c.,  being  afiections  of 
the  verbs  move  and  prove,  necessarily  suggest  their 
simples,  and  make  the  insertion  of  e  unnecessary. — See 
Aphorism  iv. 

With  respect  to  reconcileable,  unreconcUeable,  and  re- 
concileableness,  which  we  find  in  Johnson  with  the  e, 
Wxoaghirreconcilable,  irreconcilably,  and  irreconcilahleness, 
are  without  it,  we  must  class  these  with  saleable,  tame- 
able, unshalceable,  uidameable,  and  sizeable;  for  as  these 
are  the  only  words  of  this  form  in  the  whole  language 
whore  the  silent  e  is  preserved,  it  is  reasonable  to  sup- 
pose that  its  insertion  here  was  owing  to  the  inadvert- 
ence either  of  the  author  or  printer ;  for  as  the  preser- 
vation of  e  in  these  words  is  founded  on  such  reasons  as 
would  oblige  us  to  preserve  the  silent  e  in  all  compounds 
where  it  is  now  omitted,  and  consequently  entirely  alter 
the  current  orthography,  the  omission  of  it,  wherever 
the  preceding  vowel  or  consonant  retains  its  general 
sound,  is  certainly  the  most  analogical ;  as  there  is  no 
more  reason  for  retaining  the  silent  e  in  saleable,  tame- 
able, &c.  than  in  blamable,  tenable,  consumable,  &c.  tithe' 


Ix 


able  has  a  proper  claim  to  the  e,  to  show  that  th  lias  its 
flat  or  obtuse  sound. 

APnOKISM  XI. 

The  verbs  to  /((//,  jxt//,  and  saj/,  by  an  unaccountable 
caprice,  form  their  23reterites  and  participles  passive,  by 
changing  y  into  /,  and  omitting  c  in  the  assumed  ter- 
mination ed  ;  and  instead  of  layed,  payed,  sayed,  we 
always  see  laid,  paid,  said,  which  orthography  is  pre- 
served in  their  compounds,  as  unlaid,  uiisaid,  repaid. 
This  is  an  exception  to  Aphorism  ii. 

APHOEISM  XII. 

Words  taken  into  composition  often  drop  those  letters 
which  were  superfluous  in  their  simples,  as  Chrislnias, 
duvyhil,  handful,  &c. 

Observations. 

The  uncertainty  of  our  orthography  in  this  article 
calls  loudly  for  reformation,  and  nothing  can  better 
show  the  danger  of  indulging  this  excision,  than  a 
display  of  the  diversity  that  reigns  in  Johnson's  Dic- 
tionary.

The  origin  of  this  ridiculous  iiTegulariLy  which  has 
prevailed  within  these  tew  years,  is  not  hard  to  guess. 
Some  shallow  writers,  or  perhaps  printers,  have  heard 
that  good  authors  have  complained  that  our  language  is 
clogged  by  clusters  of  consonants.  This  was  sufl^icieut 
to  set  these  smatterers  at  work  on  so  easy  a  business  as 
that  of  unloading  the  language  of  its  useless  letters ; 
and  we  find,  under  the  notion  of  useless  letters,  and 
clusters  of  consonants,  we  are  near  being  deprived  of 


Ixi 

tlie  most  useful  letters  we  lifxvc.  But  -words  are  evi- 
dently mistaken  foi-  things.  Clusters  of  consonants  to 
tbe  ear  are  very  different  from  assemblages  of  conson- 
ants to  the  eye ;  these  ai'e  often  no  more  than  double 
consonants  of  the  same  kind,  and  are  so^xnded  as  easily 
as  single  ones  ;  but  those  knots  of  discordant  consonants 
to  the  ear,  however  disgustful,  ai'e  not  to  be  removed 
without  entirelj'  altering  the  language.  The  clusters  of 
consonants  of  which  ^h•.  Addison  complains,  are  those 
that  arise  from  sinking  the  intervening  vowels  in  pro- 
nunciation, as  droivn\l,  ivalk'd,  arriv'd,  for  drowned, 
waR-cd,  arrived.  The  double  letters  at  the  end  of  words, 
which  are  ridiculously  confounded  with  what  is  termed 
clusters  of  consonants,  as  to  install,  xvindfall,  liandjull, 
&c.,  are  often  so  essentially  necessary  to  preserve  the 
true  sound  from  being  mistaken,  that,  if  we  deprive 
words  of  one  of  these  double  letters,  they  are  in  danger 
of  deo-eneratinsr  into  a  different  sound ;  for  what  secu- 
rity  have  we  but  a  previous  knowledge  of  the  simples, 
which  is  contrary  to  the  first  principles  of  our  ortho- 
graphy, that  the  last  syllable  of  waterfal  is  not  to  rhyme 
with  the  first  oi  shallow,  and  the  last  of  handful  with  the 
monosyllable  dull  ? 

In  short,  as  Mr.  Elpbinston  very  justly,  as  well  as 
pleasantly,  observes,  "  Every  reader,  both  young  and 
old,  must  now  be  so  sagacious  an  analyst,  as  to  discern 
at  once,  not  only  what  are  compounds,  and  what  their 
simples,  but  that  oX  i  u  composition  is  equal  to  all  out  of 
it;  or,  in  other  words,  that  it  is,  both  what  it  is,  and 
what  it  is  not." — Frin.  Eng.  Lan.  vol.  i.  p.  60. 

Thus  have  I  ventured,  with  a  trembling  hand,  to 
point  out  a  few  of  the  most  glaring  inconsistencies 
under  which  the  orthography  of  our  language  labours, 
without  daring  to  make  the  least  step  to  a  reformation 
myself;  lor  if  ever  this  be  done  to  any  good  purpose,  it 
must  certainly  be  by  the  joint  labour  of  both  our  uni- 
versities ;  till  when,  no  individual  can  do  better  service 
to  the  orthogi'aphy  of  his  country,  than  to  let  it  remain 
as   it  stands  at  present  in   that  monument  of  English 

Noit\ — Some  of  these  double  h'ttfrs  have  teen  inserted  by  the 
subsequent  editors  of  Johnson's  Dictionaiy  ;  but  whether  from  the 
remarks  here  made,  or  their  own  sagacity,  we  are  not  informed. 


Ixii 

philology  erected  by  Johnson.  Those  who  see  beyond 
the  surface,  regret  the  many  deviations  from  that  only 
standard  of  our  language  by  the  Greekliugs  and  Latin- 
itastors  of  this  smattering  age ;  and  it  is  certainly  to  be 
feared,  that^  if  this  pruning  of  our  words  of  all  the 
superduo'is  letters,  as  they  are  called,  should  be  much 
farther  indulged,  we  shall  quickly  antiquate  our  most 
respectable  authors  and  irreparably  maim  our  language. 

SYLLABICATION. 

As  the  inverted  order  of  arrangement  gives  us  a  con- 
sistent idea  of  the  structure  of  language,  so  a  division  of 
words  into  syllables  du'ects  us  in  their  sound ;  for  the 
division  here  adopted  is  not  founded  on  any  rules  drawn 
from  etymology,  or  the  practice  of  languages  essentially 
different  from  our  own,  but  on  such  principles  as  are  the 
result  of  the  language  itself,  and  arise  naturally  from 
the  very  nature  and  practice  of  pronunciation.  This 
part  of  language,  which  has  been  left  to  chance  or 
caprice,  is  of  all  others  the  most  important  and  delicate. 
Hardly  anything  like  a  system  has  been  chalked  out,  or 
have  any  rules  been  given  that  have  produced  the  least 
uniformit}',  or  answered  any  valuable  purposes  of  pro- 
nunciation. Till  Dr.  Kenrick's  Rhetorical  Dictionary, 
we  have  scarcely  seen  anythir  ^  like  an  attempt  to  divide 
words  as  they  are  pronounced  ;  but  the  Latin  and  Greek 
Byllabication  implicitly  adopted,  to  the  evident  disad- 
vantage of  children,  and  emban-assment  of  foreigners ; 
and  for  the  very  same  reasons  that  Ramus  contends  we 
ought  to  divide  doctus  and  Atlas  into  do-ctus  and  A-tlas, 
Mr  Ward  insists  we  must  separate  magnet, pojjlar,  lustre, 
and  reptile  into  ma-gnet,  po-plar,  lu-stre,  and  re-pt'de. 

Now  if  the  end  of  syllabication  may  be  supposed  to 
be  the  most  likely  method  of  directing  us  to  the  means^ 
we  shall  find  nothing  can  be  more  absurd  than  such  a 
division.  For  the  object  of  parcelling  out  a  word  into 
distinct  portions,  seems  to  be  to  instruct  us  cither  in  its 
etymology  or  pronunciation.  If  in  the  division  of  words 
into  syllables  we  have  only  etymology  in  view,  we  must 
undoubtedly  resolve  compounds  into  their  simples,  with- 
out paying  the  least  attention  to  the  sound  of  these 
sinjplcs,  either  as  united,  or  in  a  state   of  separation. 


Ixiii 

But  though  this  method  of  syllaljicnliug  be  very  proper 
vvliou  we  woukl  inve.sti'jfate  the  origin  of  a  word  and 
show  its  derivation,  yet,  when  a  distinctness  of  sound  is 
the  only  object  of  such  a  division,  as  is  ever  the  case  in 
the  pronunciation  of  language,  it  would  be  the  highcsl 
al).surdity  to  clog  the  instruction  with  etymological  divi- 
sions, as  these  are  frequently  opposite  to  actual  pronun- 
ciation. Here  then,  sound  alone  should  be  the  criterion 
of  syllabication,  and  we  ought  to  reduce  a  compound 
word  to  its  simple  impulses  of  the  voice,  as  we  would 
a  bar  of  music  to  its  simple  notes  ;  for  etymologists  may 
surely  content  themselves  with  their  own  divisions 
where  sound  is  not  in  question,  without  disturbing 
those  w^hose  principal  object  is  the  conveying  of  sound, 
and  who  consider  etymology  as  entirely  independent 
on  it. 

Easy,  however,  as  such  a  division  may  appear  at  first 
view,  an  attempt  to  extend  it  to  every  word  in  the  lan- 
guage will  soon  convince  us  that  the  ear  in  a  thousand 
instances  will  prove  but  a  very  uncertain  guide,  without 
a  knowledge  of  those  principles  by  which  the  ear  itself 
is  insensibly  directed,  and  which,  having  their  origin  in 
the  nature  of  language,  operate  with  steadiness  and  re- 
gularity in  the  midst  of  the  ficklest  affectation  and 
caprice.  It  can  scarcely  be  supposed  that  the  most  ex- 
perienced speaker  has  heard  every  word  in  the  language 
and  the  whole  circle  of  sciences  pronounced  exactly  as 
it  ought  to  be ;  and  if  this  be  the  case,  he  must  some- 
times have  recourse  to  the  principles  of  pronunciation, 
when  his  ear  is  either  uninformed  or  unfaithful.  These 
principles  are  those  general  laws  of  articulation,  which 
determine  the  character,  and  fix  the  boundaries  of 
every  language ;  as  in  every  system  of  speaking,  how- 
ever irregular,  the  organs  must  necessarily  fall  into  some 
common  mode  of  enunciation,  or  the  purpose  of  Provi- 
dence in  the  gift  of  speech  would  be  absolutely  defeated. 
These  laws,  like  every  other  object  of  philosophical  in- 
quiry, are  only  to  be  traced  by  an  attentive  observation 
and  enumeration  of  particulars,  and  when  these  parti- 
culars are  sufficiently  numerous  to  form  a  general  rule, 
an  axiom  in  pronunciation  is  acquired.  By  an  accumu- 
lation of  these  axioms,  and  an  analog-ical  comparison  of

thein  with  each  other,  ue  dibcuver  tlie  deviations  ol 
laiiiruage  where  custom  has  varied,  and  the  only  clow  to 
guide  us  where  custom  is  either  indeterminate  or  ob- 
scure. 

Thus,  b}-  a  view  of  the  words  ending  in  ihj  or  e/?/,  1 
hiid  the  accent  invariably  placed  on  the  preceding  sylla- 
ble, as  in  diverdil)/,  congruitij,  &c.  On  a  closer  inspec- 
tion I  find  every  vowel  in  this  antepenultimate  syllable, 
when  no  consonant  intervenes,  pronounced  long,  as 
de'itij,  pi'eiy,  &c.,  a  nearer  observation  shows  mc  that  if 
a  consonant  intervene,  every  vowel  in  this  syllable  buttt 
contracts  itself,  and  is  pronounced  short,  as  sever'itij, 
curids'itij,  impu'iiity,  &c.  I  find  too,  that  even  u  con- 
tracts itself  before  two  consonants,  as  cufvihj,  iaciluDiiti/ 
&c.,  and  tha.t  scarcity  and  rarity*  (for  whose  irregularity 
good  reasons  may  be  given),  are  the  only  exce])tions  to 
this  rule  throufjliout  the  lanyuaoe.  And  thus  we  have 
a  series  of  near  seven  hundred  words,  the  accentuation 
of  which,  as  well  as  the  quantity  of  the  accented  vowel, 
is  reduced  to  two  or  three  simple  rules. 

The  same  uniformity  of  accentuation  and  quantity, 
may  be  observed  in  the  first  syllable  of  those  words 
which  have  the  accent  on  the  third,  as  dem-on-stra'tion, 
dim-i-tni'tio)i,  lu-cii-bra'tiu7i,  &c.,  where  we  evidently  per- 
ceive a  stress  on  the  first  syllable  shortening  every 
vowel  butif,  and  this  in  every  word  thi'oughout  the  lan- 
guage, except  where  two  consonants  follow  the  u,  as  in 
cnr-vi-lin-ear,  or  where  two  vowels  follow  the  consonant 
that  succeeds  any  other  vowel  in  the  first  syllable,  as 
de-vi-a'tion ;  or  lastly,  where  the  word  is  evidently  of 
our  own  composition,  as  rc-con-vey  :  but  as  u  in  the  first 
syllable  of  a  word,  having  the  accent  on  the  third  has 
the  same  tendency  to  length  and  f)penness  as  was  ob- 
servable when  it  preceded  the  termination  iiy ;  I  find  it 
necessary  to  separate  it  from  the  consonant  in  hu-ty- 
raci'cnis,  which  I  have  never  heard  pronoimced,  as  well  as 
in  lucubration,  which  I  have,  and  this  from  no  pretended 
agreement  with  the  quantity  of  the  Latin  words  these  are 
dei'ived  from,  for  in  the  former  word  the  u  is  doubtful ; 
but  from  the  general  system  of  quantity  I  see  adopted 
in    English    pronunciation.       This  only   will    direct  an 

•   Some  orthoepists  do  not  now  account  larily  an  exception. 


ixv 

English  car  with  certainty  ;  for  tliongh  wc  may  some- 
times place  the  accent  on  words  we  borrow  from  the 
Greek  or  Latin  on  the  same  syllable  as  in  those  langu- 
ages, as  acu'mev,  elegi'ac,  &c.;  nay,  though  we  sometimes 
adopt  the  accent  of  the  original  with  every  word  of  the 
same  termination  we  derive  from  it,  as  assidu'ify,  vidu'ity, 
&c.,  yet  the  quantity  of  the  accented  vowel  is  so  often 
contrary  to  that  of  the  Latin  and  Greek,  that  scarcely 
the  shadow  of  a  rule  can  be  di'awn,  in  this  point,  from 
these  languages  to  ours.  Thus,  in  the  letter  in  question, 
in  the  Latin  accuniulo,  cluhious,  hmurar,  &c.,  the  first  u 
is  everywhere  short;  but  in  the  English  words  accumu- 
late, duhius,  tumor,  evei'y  where  long.  Nu2it'ali.-y  viur- 
Tiiur,  ttirbtdent'us,  &c.  where  the  u  in  the  first  syllable  in 
Latin  is  long,  we  as  constantly  pronounce  it  short  in 
nuptial,  murmur,  turbulent,  &c.  Nor  indeed  can  we 
wonder  that  a  different  economy  of  quantity  is  observ- 
able in  the  ancient  and  modern  languages,  as  in  the 
former,  two  consonants  almost  always  lengthen  the  pre- 
ceding vowel,  and  in  the  latter  as  constantly  shorten  it. 
Thus,  without  arguing  in  a  vicious  circle,  we  find  that 
as  a  division  of  the  generality  of  words  as  they  are 
actually  pronounced,  gives  us  the  general  laws  of  sylla- 
bication, so  these  laws,  once  understood,  direct  us  in  the 
division  of  such  words  as  we  have  never  heard  actually 
pronounced,  and  consequently  to  the  true  pronunciation 
of  them.  For  these  operations,  like  cause  and  effect,  re- 
flect nmtually  a  light  on  each  other,  and  prove  that,  by 
nicely  observing  the  path  Avhich  custom  in  language  has 
once  taken,  we  can  more  than  guess  at  the  line  she 
must  keep  in  a  similar  case,  where  her  footsteps  are  not 
quite  so  discernible.  So  true  is  the  observation  of 
Scaliger,  Ita  omnihus  in  rebus  certissivi'i  ratione  sibi  ijjsa 
respondet  iiatura. — De  causis  Ling.  Lat. 

PRONUNCIATION. 

Syllabication  having  sound  for  its  object,  and  the  asso- 
ciation of  similar  terminations  contributing  so  largely  to 
facilitate  syllabication,  it  is  evident  that  the  most  obvious 
advantage  of  this  inverted  prospect  of  our  language  is  the 
assistance  it  affords  to  pronunciation.  In  other  dictiona- 
ries, words  of  a  totally  different  form  promiscuously  sue- 


Jxvi 

ceod  each  other,  while  in  this  we  find  the  words  sorted 
by  their  species  as  well  as  letters.  It  is  recommended 
by  Mr.  Sheridan,  in  his  Lectures  on  Elocution,  to  select 
those  words  which  we  find  difficult  to  pronounce,  and  to 
repeat  thern  frequently  till  a  habit  is  acquired.  This  rule 
is  founded  on  good  sense  and  experience,  and  ought  to 
be  carefully  attended  to  by  foreigners  and  provincials; 
but  if  the  difficulty  of  pronouncing  lies  in  the  latter 
syllables,  as  is  most  frequently  the  case,  what  immense 
labour  must  it  be  to  select  these  from  a  common  dic- 
tionar}'  ?  But  in  this,  how  readily  are  we  introduced  to 
the  whole  species  of  any  termination  at  once,  and  by 
seeing  the  whole  class,  gain  an  intimate  acquaintance 
with  its  specific  orthography  and  pronunciation  ;  fur  by 
this  means,  not  only  a  more  precise  idea  of  the  spelling 
of  words  is  obtained,  and  an  opportunity  of  habituat- 
ing the  organs  to  every  difficult  termination,  but  the 
dependence  of  accent  on  termination  is  at  large  dis- 
played, and  a  habit  induced  of  associating  the  stress 
with  its  corresjiondent  ultimate  P3'llable.  This  view  of 
accent  will  show  us  that  our  lano-aao-e  is  much  less  irre- 
galar  than  is  generally  imagined,  and  we  soon  discover 
termination  to  be,  as  it  were,  a  rudder  to  accent,  a  key 
that  opens  to  us  an  unexpected  scene  of  uniformity,  and 
proves,  as  Mr.  EliDhinston  admirably  expresses  it,  "  that 
speech,  the  peculiar  glory  of  rational  intercourse,  is 
neither  given  nor  guided  by  an  arbitrary  power,  but  that 
use  in  language,  as  in  all  nature,  is  no  other  than  the 
constant  agency  of  harmony  and  of  reason." — Frin.  Eiig. 
Lan.  vol.  i.  p.  3. 

There  are  few  but  must  observe  with  what  difficulty 
chililren,  and  even  youth,  acquire  a  secure  pronunciation 
of  the  technical  terms  in  the  learned  professions,  and 
how  frequently  they  are  at  a  loss  for  the  sound  of  an 
English  word  they  have  not  been  accustomed  to  even  at 
the  time  they  are  making  great  advances  in  the  learned 
languages.  This  observation  will  naturally  lead  us  to 
presume  that  the  present  work,  of  all  others,  must  be  the 
most  useful  for  such  schools  as  are  not  entirely  negligent 
of  their  mother  tongue.  Here  the  words  of  any  difficulty 
are  selected  in  a  moment,  and  by  being  repeated  a  few 
times  over  in  the  order  they  lis,  will  imbue  the  ear  with 


Ixvu 


Bucli  an  accentual  rliythmus,  if  I  may  call  it  so,  as  will 
infallibly  rei^ulato  tlie  pronunciation  ever  after. 

The  division  and  accentuation  of  words,  according  to 
the  length  or  shortness  of  the  vowels,  is  an  advantage 
to  pronunciation  which  must  strike  the  most  cursory 
inspector.  The  utility  of  such  a  method,  if  just  and 
agreeable  to  the  analogy  of  the  language,  will  be  readily 
acknowledged  by  those  who  are  so  frequently  disap- 
pointed in  the  inspection  of  other  dictionaries.  It  is  noa 
a  little  surprising  that  a  method  of  accentuation,  so  pccu- 
liai'ly  useful,  should  till  lately  have  been  almost  entirely 
neglected.  This  defect  in  the  generality  of  our  dictiona- 
ries did  not  escape  the  judicious  Mr.  Sheridan,  who  in- 
sists largely  on  the  utility  of  placing  the  accent  on  tho 
consonant,  when  the  preceding  vowel  is  short,  and  on  the 
vowel,  when  the  vowel  itself  is  long ;  and  though  this 
does  not  specify  the  kind  of  vowel,  with  respect  to  sound- 
which  is  the  subject  of  accentuation,  it  at  least  deter- 
mines its  quantity,  and  is  so  far  infinitely  superior  to 
the  common  metliod  of  placing  the  accent  on  the  vowel, 
whether  it  be  long  or  short. 

Another  and  almost  exclusive  advantage  of  the  pre- 
sent work  is,  that  every  monosyllable  which  swerves 
from  the  general  rule  of  pronunciation,  is  rhymed  with 
such  a  word  as  cannot  possibly  be  pronounced  otherwise 
than  it  is  written  ;  or  if  this  cannot  be  done,  it  is  spelled 
in  such  a  manner  as  to  take  away  all  ambiguity.  Thus 
as  the  more  general  sound  of  the  diphthong  ea  is  like  e 
long  and  open  in  here,  mere,  &c.,  wherever  it  deviates 
from  this  sound,  a  rhyme  is  inserted  to  ascertain  its  pro- 
nunciation ;  head  therefore  is  rhymed  with  hed,  that  it 
may  not  be  liable  to  the  Scotch  pronunciation  of  this 
word,  as  if  spelled  heed  ;  and  (jreat  is  rhymed  with  bate, 
chat  it  may  be  distinguished  from  the  sound  the  Irish  aro 
apt  to  give  it,  as  if  spelled  greet.  A  how  (to  shoot  with) 
Is  rhymed  with  go,  and  bow  (an  act  of  reverence)  with 
coiv ;  and  prove,  dove,  &c.,  are  determined  in  their  pro- 
nunciation by  the  uui vocal  orthography  prooue,  duvv,  &c. ; 
by  this  means  the  stamina  of  our  language,  as  monosyl- 
lables may  be  called,  are  freed  from  ambiguity  of  sound, 
and  compounds  I'endered  easier  by  fixing  the  pronuncia- 
tion of  their  simples.

RHy:ME. 

The  laot,  tliougli  p'eraaps  the  least,  advantage  of  tho 
following  -work,  is  the  complete  collection  of  all  the 
I'hymes  in  the  language.  However  insignificant  it  may 
peem  in  this  respect,  it  is  at  least  ncAV.  For  though 
I^vsshe  has  given  us  a  Dictionaiy  of  Rhymes  at  the  end 
ot  his  Art  of  Poetry,  his  Dictionary,  if  it  may  be  called 
so,  does  not  contain  six  thousand  words,  when  Johnson's 
Dictionary,  to  -which  this  approaches  nearer  than  any 
other,  has  very  few  short  of  forty  thousand.*  Here,  then, 
as  in  the  French  Dicfionnaire  des  Jiimes  of  JRiclielet,  the 
whole  lang-uao-e  is  arranged  according  to  its  similar  end- 
ings,  and  the  English  are  no  longer  unfurnished  with  an 
assistance  to  versification,  Avhich  Abbe  du  Bos  tells  us 
the  French  poets — Quoiqu'ils  en  clisent  Us  ont  toiis  ce  livre 
dans  leur  arriere  cabinet.  But  had  the  author  seen  no 
farther  advantage  in  this  work,  than  barely  furnishing 
similar  sounds  for  the  purposes  of  poetry,  he  should 
have  thought  his  labour  ill  bestowed.  It  is  by  no  means 
his  intention  to  vindicate  the  cause  of  rh^-me  to  the  least 
prejudice  of  a  nobler  verse,  which  is  the  peculiar  glory  of 
the  English  as  a  living  language  ;  nor  will  he  insist  on 
the  proofs,  both  from  nature  and  experience,  that  rhyme 
may  be  sometimes  admitted  to  advantage,  while  Waller, 
Dryden,  and  Pope  are  in  everybody's  hands. t  It  will 
only  be  necessary  to  observe,  that,  for  fear  those  who 
have  been  accustomed  to  the  common  dictionary  of 
rhymes  annexed  to  Bysshe,  should  find  a  difficulty  in 
discovering  words  by  this  new  arrangement,  an  index 
of  Rhymes,  much  more  copious  and  correct  than  any 
hitherto  published,  is  added,  in  which  the  old  method  of 
classing  the  words  is  continued,  and  a  new  and  nume- 
rous class  of  allowable  rhymes  pointed  out,  with  autho- 
rities for  their  usage  fi'om  our  best  poets  ;  but  for  a  more 
satisfactory  account  of  this  part  of  the  work,  see  the 
Preface  to  the  Index,  at  the  end  of  this  Dictionary, 

*   Into  this  edition  nearly  1800  additional  words  have  heen  in- 
troduced. 


t  See  the  subject   of  rhyme  judiciously  discussed 
in  his  Ajt  of  Reading.

TELEGRAPHIC    ERRORS. 


Among  otber  uses  of  the  Klij-miiig  Dictionaiy,  and 
one  that  will  most  commend  it  to  commercial  men,  is 
the  assistance  it  affoi'ds  in  deciphering  errors  in  tele- 
grams. All  merchants  having  business  relations  with 
America  or  the  Far  East  use  Telegraph  Codes,  so 
arranged  that  each  word  in  their  Telegrams  represents 
a  whole  sentence.  Frequent) \^,  however,  these  words 
are  so  mutilated  in  ti'ansmisaion  as  to  be  almost  unre- 
cognizable. As  a  rule  there  is  not  much  difficul!;y  in 
finding  the  proper  word  if  the  ciphers  (or  symbolical 
words)  in  the  code  are  alphabetically  arranged,  unless 
the  first  letters  in  it  have  been  altered  or  lost.  It  is 
especially  in  the  latter  case  that  this  work  will  be  found 
useful,  and  evei'y  merchant  who  receives  Telegrams  of 
importance  should  obtain  a  copy,  and  insert  in  their 
places  such  jjroper  names  or  unusual  words  as  he  may 
be  likely  to  receive  in  his  Telegrams,  if  he  does  not  find 
them  already  printed. 

An  instance  of  not  uncommon  word-mutilation  may 
be  added  to  show  the  value  of  the  book  for  the  purpose 
above-mentioned.  In  a  Telegram  received,  a  word 
appears  as  "  Sterturn."  The  merchant  goes  through 
the  usual  course  of  looking  through  his  Code  for  any 
word  like  this,  which  will  make  sense  in  connection 
with  the  remainder  of  the  message,  and  after  wasting 
an  hour  or  more  in  trying  to  decipher  the  true  meaning, 
is  compelled  to  return  the  Telegram  to  the  Telegraph 
Company  for  repetition. 


IXXll 

Probably  in  tlic  course  of  the  iullowing  day  lie 
receives  the  amendod  message,  showing  that  the  word 
originally  despatched  was  "  Overturn,"  moaning  "  Sell- 
to-arrive  1,000  hales  Tinnivelly  Cotton  at  5^  pence  ^^er 
pound."  By  this  time,  however,  the  London  ])rice  has 
declined  to  o^d,  per  pound,  so  that  he  must  cither  run 
the  risk  of  holding  the  cotton  in  a  falling  market,  or 
submit  to  an  immediate  loss  of  £300  on  the  previous 
day's  quotation.  Now  had  this  merchant  referred  to 
this  book  under  the  letter  N  for  words  ending  "erturn." 
he  would  at  once  have  found  the  word  "Overturn,"  and 
saved  some  hundreds  of  pounds. 

We  may  exjjlaiu  that  such  an  error  as  the  above  ia 
not  unfi'equently  caused  by  incoiTect  reading  of  the 
"Morse"  alphabet;    the  letter.s   St  being  expressed   in 

"Morse"  by  ---    —  and  the  letter    V  by ,   the 

initial  "O"   was  either  lost  or  very  likely  attached  to 
the  end  of  the  previous  word. 

Thousands  of  instances  of  errors  and  consequent 
heavy  losses  might  be  given,  but  no  Merchant  or 
Banker  requires  to  be  told  of  them,  as  they  are  uf 
ahnost  daily  occurrence. 

As  a  further  assistance  in  deciphering  badly  trans- 
mitted messag's,  we  ai)pcnd  the  Mor.se  Alphabet,  as 
used  on  almost  every  Telegraph  wire  throughout  the 
world,  and  a  list  of  the  more  common  errors  occuiring 
in  Telegrams.

RHYMING  DICTIONARY. 


IDl-JA  OF  THE  ARRANGEMENT  OF  WORDS  IN 
THIS  DICTIONARY. 

As  in  other  Dictionaries  words  follnw  each  otlior  in  nn  alphalictical 
order  according  to  the  letters  they  begin  with,  in  this  they  I'dUow 
each  other  according  to  the  letters  thej-  end  with.  AH  words  there- 
fore that  end  with  a  are  placed  first  in  this  Dictionary,  as  all  those 
that  hcf/in  with  a  arc  placed  first  in  otlier  Dictionaries  ;  those  that 
end  with  h  arc  placed  next,  and  so  of  the  rest.  The  directing  let- 
ters at  the  top  of  each  page,  are  likewise  in  the  same  order  ;  that 
is,  they  are  the  last  letters  of  words  instead  of  the  first. 

DIRECTIONS  FOR  FINDING  WORDS. 

In  looking  for  a  word,  the  last  letter  is  to  be  sought  first,  the 
last  but  one  next,  and  so  on  from  the  last  to  the  first  letters  of  a 
word  in  an  order  exactly  contrary  to  that  of  other  Dictionaries. 
Thus,  if  I  want  to  find  the  word  Idea,  I  must  first  look  for  a, 
among  those  words  which  end  with  a;  those  I  find  in  the  paga 
oj)posite  to  this.  The  next  letter  I  want  is  e,  I  therefore  look 
among  those  words  that  end  with  a,  for  a  word  whose  last  letter 
but  one  is  e,  and  find  it  in  the  word  Panacea,  the  twenty-fourth 
word  from  the  top  ;  the  next  letter  d,  I  li:)ok  for  among  those  word? 
that  end  with  ea,  and  find  it  in  the  third  word  after  I'anacca,  which 
is  the  word  I  sought.  So  that  for  the  last  letter  of  a  word,  I  look 
among  those  words  ending  with  the  same  letter  ;  for  the  last  letter 
but  one  of  a  word,  I  look  among  the  last  letters  but  one  of  these 
words,  and  so  of  the  rest. 

It  must  be  particularly  noted,  that  the  directing  letters  on  the 
top  of  each  page,  are  to  be  looked  for  in  the  same  order,  that  is, 
from  the  right  hand  to  the  lelt. 

The  best  way  to  avoid  coni'usion,  will  be  to  look  for  the  letters 
one  by  one,  and  to  begin  with  the  first  word  of  every  class,  and  so 
proceed  downwards  till  the  word  is  found.  Thus,  if  I  want  to  find 
the  word  A/p/iabt/,  I  keep  the  last  letter  /  in  my  mind,  and  turn 
to  that  part  of  the  Dictionary  whire  the  words  ending  with  t  are 
classed,  which  is  near  the  end.  The  first  word  of  this  class  I  find 
to  be  (tt ;  the  next  letter  I  want  is  e ;  I  therefore  run  my  eye  down 
the  last  letter  but  one  of  this  class  till  [  come  to  l/cl,  the  next  letter 
I  want  is  a,  which  leads  me  to  fix  my  eye  upon  the  fourth  letter 
from  the  last,  which  brings  me  to  abet,  and  so  of  the  rest. 

As  this  arrangcinniL  is  perfectly  simple,  two  or  three  trials  will 
render  it  as  intelligible  as  the  common  order,  especially  if  the  word 
We  look  for  be  first  written  down,  and  carried  along  with  the  eye 
in  its  search.

But  they  raf.ed  at  no  news  froiii  tljo  nations  belligoroiit 

And  I  siiid,  let'in  rage,  since  the  air  is  roliigeraiit. 

I  then  met  large  numbers,  whose  drink  was  not  slicrl.ct, 

Who  scarce  could  look  up  when  their  eyes  the  gas-j/lars  mtt ; 

So  when  I  had  learn'd,  from  commercial  adviser. 

That  mere  gait  for  sand  was  the  great  foililizcr, 

I  bade  Mr  Eaglet,  altho'  'twas  ideal, 

Get  some  from  the  clay-iiit,  and  so  get'm  real; 

Then,  just  sis  my  footstep  was  leaviutf  the  portal, 

I  met  an  dm  tavge  on  a  great  Hi(,'hland  mortal. 

With  the  maid  he  had  woo'd  by  the  Loch's  flowry  mnrgelet. 

And  row'd  in  his  boat,  which,  for  rhyme's  sake,  call  bargekt. 

And  blythe  to  the  breeze  would  have  set  the  sail  daily. 

Hut  it  blow  at  that  rate  which  our  sailors  term  gale,  aye; 

I  stumbled  against  the  fair  bride  he  had  married, 

Wheu  a  merle  gat  at  large  from  a  cage  that  she  carried ; 

She  gave  a  loud  screech  !  and  I  could  not  well  blame  her, 

But,  lame  as  I  was,  I'd  no  wish  to  get  lamer ; 

So  I  made  my  escape — ne'er  an  antelope  fleeter, 

Lest  my  verse,  like  the  poet,  should  limp  thro'  lag  metre.

INDEX  OF  P5RFECT  AND  AI.l.OWABLE  RIIYMFS 


As  the  principal  object  of  the  preceding  Syllabic  Dictionary  wu  to 
throw  light  on  the  structure,  ortlioi,'ni]>by,  niiJ  |  ^  <.f 

our  language,   it  was  necessary  to  adIuTu  stiicUy   •       .-..i 

order  of  arrangement,  that  tcrminiitions  of  Himilar  orthography 
might  be  classed  together,  though  those  of  similar  sound  would 
sometimes,  by  this  means,  bo  scj)aratod  ;  but  as  lln:  inTftt«xl  peti- 
tion of  the  words,  though  the  simplest  that  could  bo  ch'«<  n  for 
this  purpose,  may  possibly  at  first  embarrass  the  iniipcctor  for 
poetry,  an  index  of  rhymes  is  annexed  iu  the  same  ordrr  aa  in 
Poole  and  Bysshe,  though  much  more  coi)iou8  and  corri<:t,  bckidra 
a  reference  to  an  almost  infinite  number  of  nllowublc  rhyme*,  with 
authorities  for  their  usage  from  our  best  poela.  Aa  an  inJc»  to 
allowable  rhymes  is  an  attempt  perfectly  new,  it  may  uol  U-  im- 
proper to  make  a  few  observations  with  respect  to  it4  utility,  and 
answer  some  objections  to  which  it  m:iy  be  liable. 

Obs.  I.  Whatever  has  been  constantly  iiraclised  by  our  n)"»l 
harmonious  poets,  may  be  safely  presumed  to  bo  agreeable  Iu  iho 
genius  of  our  poetry  :  it  is  highly  i)robablo  that  our  proaody  has 
passed  its  meridian,  and  that  no  reformation  can  poasibly  be  roado 
witliout  injuring  it.  The  delicate  cars  of  a  Pope  or  an  A  •  ' 
would  scarcely  have  acquiesced  in  the  usage  of  impt-rfict  i:  . 
and  sanctioned  them  so  often  by  their  practice,  if  »uch  rhymta  bad 
been  really  a  blemish.     The  same  masculine  force  tl    •  '* 

our  poetry  without  the  assistance  of  any  rhyme  at  »..,  ..  to 
exempt  it  from  that  servile  attention  to  perf.'ctly  simiiar  ihjmr*, 
to  which  the  French  versification  is  invi..Iably  bound.  Nay,  m> 
far  from  a  defect,  thdro  seems  to  bo  6om.  t:  '    .   •      -   '  -    rt- 

ing  from  a  pertecf  'exactness  of  rhyme,  as  :  .  .     .  .1 

sameness  of  returning  sounds  on  the  espcciing  car*  which  in  porUy 
perhap.«,  as  in  music,  requires  something  like  an  occauonal  d.^otd 
to  make  even  hannony  itself  more  agreeable. 

Ob3.  2.   But  though  an  English  car  will  frttly  udmil  of  a  rhjn>» 
between  a  long  and  short  sound  of  the  mhic  vow.L  and 


670  PllEFACE. 

even  between  the  long  and  short  sounds  of  diflferent  vowels,  yet 
these  vowels  that  are  suffered  to  rhyme  are  not  of  a  different  nature, 
though  called  by  a  different  name.  The  inaccuracy  with  which 
they  are  denominated  has  but  very  little  influence  on  the  practice 
of  our  poets,  -who,  trying  them  by  the  only  infallible  touclistone, 
the  ear,  discover  the  relation  between  similar  vowels,  better  than 
by  a  grammatical  analj-sis.  By  the  usage  of  the  poets,  we  find  the 
vowels  frequently  associated  according  to  their  radical  sound,  and 
that  a  union  is  lawful  between  any  vowels  of  the  same  family,  as  it 
may  be  called,  though  the  name  may  be  different ;  therefore,  as  the 
e  in  led  is  by  no  means  the  real  short  sound  of  that  letter  as  heard 
in  its  name,  or  in  the  word  glede,  it  is  no  wonder  if  the  poets  very 
often  associate  it  with  the  slender  a,  as  heard  in  lade,  and  of  which 
it  is  really  the  short  sound.  The  same  may  be  observed  of  almost 
every  other  imperfect  rhyme  we  meet  with ;  if  the  family  sound  of 
the  vowel  be  preserved,  the  ear  acknowledges  the  affinity ;  if  a 
vowel  of  a  totallj'  different  sound  be  assumed,  the  ear  immediately 
detects  the  incongruous  mixture. 

Thus  the  different  sounds  of  the  vowels,  »,  e,  a,  o,  u,  slide  into 
each  other  by  an  easj'  gradation,  each  of  which  is  sufficiently  related 
to  the  preceding  and  succeeding  sound  to  form  what  is  called  an  al- 
lowable rhyme.  And  though  it  must  be  confessed  that  poets  have 
sometimes  abused  the  liberty  of  rhyming,  and  wounded  the  ear  by 
an  association  of  discordant  vowels,  yet  this  is  no  argument  against 
the  occasional  use  of  such  rhymes  as  are  but  gentle  inflections  of 
the  same  radical  sound,  as  these  circulate  freely  through  our  best 
compositions,  and  actu  illy  form  a  part  of  our  prosody. 

Obs.  3.  It  wiU  be  necessary,  therefore,  to  observe,  that,  although 
authorities  are  not  brought  for  the  usage  of  everj' individual  allow- 
able rhyme,  the  species  of  these  rhj-mes,  if  I  may  call  them  so,  are 
amply  and  repeatedly  illustrated.  For  the  same  ear  which  allows 
fflass  to  rhyme  with,  jjlacc,  or  place  yrith  peace  and  distress,  will  per- 
mit decax/d  to  rhyme  •w'x'Ca.Jled,  and  shade  with  mead ;  for  the  con- 
sonants with  which  they  terminate  do  not  alter  the  nature  of  the 
preceding  vowels,  or  occasion  any  diversity  in  the  quality  of  the 
rhyme.  It  would,  therefore,  have  been  sufficient  to  have  adduced 
a  much  smaller  number  of  poetical  examples  than  are  here  given ; 
as  they  are  all  founded  on  the  same  principles,  and  must  neces- 
sarily stand  or  fall  together. 

It  may  be  objected,  that  a  work  of  this  kind  contributes  to  ex- 
tend poetic  blemishes,  by  furnishing  imperfect  materials  and  apolo-

DIRECTIONS  FOR  FINDING  laiVMlJS  IN  THE  INDKX. 

The  simplest  idea  of  the  rhymes  in  this  arrangement  i«,  that  Iho 
words  are  divided  into  five  classes  according  to  the  vowt-l  in  their 
terminations  :  the  first  vowel  in  the  last  syllable  of  over)'  word  t« 
first  to  be  sought  for,  and  every  other  subsequent  Utter  in  it*  ra- 
tural  order,  that  is,  from  the  left  hand  to  the  right.  Thu«,  if  I 
want  a  rhyme  to  Jiand,  1  look  in  the  first  class  of  vowels  a;  the  next 
letter  is  «,  which  obliges  me  to  proceed  till  I  come  to  Ao't,  brait, 
&c. ;  the  next  letter  is  rf,  which  I  find  after  ANCII,  and  InfurD  I 
come  to  ANE.  If  I  want  a  rhyme  to  command,  a  is  the  fir»t  rowel 
in  the  last  syllable,  and  I  proceed  therefore  oa  in  haitd,  and  to  <A 
every  other;  but  as  every  arrangement  of  words  but  t'  '   ~\\ 

is  attended  with  difficulty,  I  shall  endeavour  to  make  t:  r 

finding  rhymes  as  plain  as  possible,  by  adopting  the  dirtctiont  of 
Byshe,  omitting  that  only  which  relates  to  the  l.-tt  irtom 

has  entirely  excluded  the  termination  i>  in  thuw...  ■..,  rtly, 
&c.,  which  in  his  time  were  frequently  written  dtfit,  rWiV,  *c 

1.  In  looking  for  a  word,  consider  the  five  vowela.  A,  E,  I,  0,  (', 
and  begin  at  the  vowel  that  precedes  the  last  conwr  .- '  *  'h" 
word;  for  example,  to  Qui peituad^,  and  tho  word*  thi.: 

it,  D  is  the  last  consonant,  A  the  vcwel  that  preccdoi  it ;  look  for 
ABE,  and  you  will  find  made,  fade,  ititadt,  and  all  tho  .   "  '•* 

of  that  rhvnie. 

2.  In  like  manner,  if  a  word  end  in  two  or  moro  c^n^nanU. 
becrin  at  the  vowel  that  immediately  precedes  the  flrit  of  lh«n  ;  for 


672  PHEFACE. 

example,  land,  N  is  the  first  of  tlie  final  consonants,  A  the  vowel  tluit 
precedes  it;  see  ANB^  and  you  will  find  band,  stand,  command,  &c. 

3.  But  if  a  diphthong,  that  is  to  say,  two  or  more  vowels  together, 
precedes  the  last  consonant  or  consonants  of  a  word,  begin  at  the 
first  of  these  two  vowels  ;  thus,  to  find  the  rhymes  to  disdain,  look 
not  for  IX,  but  for  AIX,  and  you  will  find  brain,  chain,  gain,  &c. 

4.  To  find  a  word  that  ends  in  a  diphthong  preceded  by  a  con- 
sonant, begin  only  at  the  first  vowel  of  the  diphthong ;  for  exam- 
ple, to  find  the  rhymes  to  subdue,  look  for  UE,  and  you  will  find 
clue,  due,  ensue,  &c. 

6.  All  the  words  that  end  in  a  single  vowel  preceded  by  a  con- 
sonant are  found  by  looking  for  that  vowel  only,  except  always 
the  words  that  end  in  mute  E,  which  are  constantly  found  by  the 
same  method  that  has  been  already  prescribed  for  finding  the 
rhymes  to  persuade,  whose  final  E  is  silent,  and  serves  only  to 
lengthen  the  sound  of  the  A  in  the  last  syllable. 


ADVERTISEMENT. 

Care  has  been  taken  in  the  compiling  of  this  Index  to  class  rhymes 
together  with  the  most  scrupulous  precision.  Such  as  are  called 
perfect  rhymes  are  exactly  similar ;  those  that  differ  by  nicer 
shades  are  called  nearly  perfect,  and  the  rest  allowable  only.  So 
that  this  collection  of  words  is  in  some  measure  a  dictionary  of 
pronunciation,  and  may  answer  ver}'  useful  purposes  to  foreigners 
and  provincials,  who,  by  understanding  the  sound  of  one  word, 
may  become  acquainted  with  the  pronunciation  of  a  whole  class. 
Thus,  if  I  would  know  how  the  word  yross  is  pronounced,  that  is, 
whether  according  to  the  French  or  English  analogy,  I  look  into 
that  rank  of  words  which  terminate  in  oss,  but  do  not  find  it :  I 
then  look  among  those  in  ose,  and  find  it  rhymes  perfectly  with 
verbose,  jocose,  &c.  And  at  the  same  time  I  avoid  being  mit-led  by 
the  licences  of  poets  in  their  frequent  usage  of  the  looser  and  less 
perfect  rh}mcs. 

No  notice  need  be  taken  of  the  advantages  arising  from  instances 
being  given  of  plurals  and  participles,  as  lays,  days,  obey'd,  plaifd, 
&:c.,  as  this  will  immediately  appear  upon  inspection,  which,  with 
many  other  improvements,  renders  this  Index  of  Rhymes,  entirely 
independent  of  its  connection  with  the  Pronouncing  Dictionary, 
greatly  superior  to  every  other  work  of  the  kind  in  our  language.

720  INDEX. 

One  sees  her  thighs  transfoitn'd  ;  another  vieu^a 

Htr  arms  shoot  out,  and  branching  into  boughs. — Annisosi 

Wit  kindled  by  the  sulph'rous  breath  of  vice. 

Like  the  blue  lightning,  while  it  chines  destroys. — Pope. 

But  notwithstanding  these,  and  some  other  vices  of  the  same 
kind,  which  some  of  our  most  respectable  poets  have  inadvertently 
fallen  into,  there  are  few  inspectors  into  this  Index  but  must  ob- 
serve an  obvious  analogy  between  the  vowels  in  the  generality  of 
the  instances  produced  ;  and  that,  however  uncouthlj'  they  may 
sound  when  pronounced  alone,  they  give  no  disgust  to  an  English 
ear,  when  introduced  at  proper  intervals ;  but  it  is  not  so  much 
my  intention  to  apologize  for  the  use  of  these  imperfect  rhymes, 
as  to  show  how  they  are  used,  and  upon  what  authority.  It  is 
certain  they  may  be  used  too  frequently,  and  that  they  are  far  from 
being  all  equally  agreeable  to  the  ear.  In  short,  the  same  taste 
and  delicacy  are  necessary  in  this,  as  in  the  more  essential  part  of 
poetry ;  beauties  and  blemishes  often  differ  but  bj'  nice  shades, 
and  it  is  the  master  alone  who  can  discern  that  point  where  bold- 
ness degenerates  into  harshness,  and  correctness  into  frigidity.
